Blooming and Bemoaning


I was cheered a few weeks ago when the peach tree in our yard starting blooming.  It was so beautiful, covered in pink blossoms.



A few days later, it looked like this:

Luckily, it seems the tree and the blossoms survived.  And my sweater is only a little worse for wear :)

Spring!!


I know, this blog has been cold and dormant for a long time.  I've moved most of my knitting patterns and craft tutorials to Hubpages.  I now plan to use this blog for other topics, like decorating, food, and recipes.

To start, I just finished this fun and VERY bright spring wreath.  I used strips of various fabrics and ribbons for the wreath, then added some artificial flowers for a fun spring-like decoration.  For all the directions, head over to my tutorial.

More fun ideas to follow!!
