Does This Hat Make Me Look Fat?



Just can't seem to put the pen and watercolors down. Been thinking about making a few patterns. These lil' chicks look as if they are ready for spring! What do you think "Does this hat make me look fat?"




Mrs. Long Ears has a basketful of fresh flowers. It took her all morning but after going through the fields she has found enough to fill her basket.



Ol' Percival has had enough of this winter and is ready for spring in his brand new jacket!


Okay I'll stop! Had a great weekend with some of the gals. Once a month I am inviting whoever would like over for a day of hooking, punching, stitching, painting, knitting, whatever. We eat and play...lots of fun so if you are in the neighborhood we would love for you to stop by and join us!



Kay is a real go getter when it comes to hooking up rugs! She almost always has one or two to share that is done or almost done.


Laura and Kay...



My sister in law Ellen and her hubby John came for the day. John is really getting the hang of punchneedle and has even done some oxford punch needle, too. My mom began a oxford punch project of a rooster and almost has it finished.
Sloan's preschool teacher Miss Teresa came over and brought her featherweight sewing machine and worked on a few blocks. Veronica is doing a punchneedle piece by Maggie B. I didn't get a snapshot of "Kathy" but she learned how do punchneedle and boy did she catch on fast!

Well back to a doodle or two before bedtime!

Happy Trails.....Ginger

Hi, Robin:
I love Mrs. Longears. I don't know about the hat on the chick, what do YOU think?
I love to see the group get together. There's a knitting group that meets downtown on Monday afternoons, I keep wanting to join but don't seem to make it there.
Hugs,
Susan

Sweet spring style drawings. I don't know which one is my favorite. I do like the bunny in his new spring jacket.

I wish I lived near you because it would be so much fun joining in on a group fun time. And I might learn something new.
