More spring, fabrics old and new

Here are some early plum blossoms in our back yard, as promised.

I thought these Rosa Parks stamps were beautiful.

My daughter gave me some vintage fabrics for my last birthday, and I've used a couple of them recently. I put this one on the back of the quilt I can't show you yet (hope it's okay to show the back). The colors go well with what I have on the front, and I think it's just perfect. I have a little left for other things; maybe I can put it on the front of a quilt, too.

Dang, I should have rotated this photo before I posted it. Ginger is wearing her newest top, which is made with more vintage fabric from my daughter. It really looks cute on her, and very Springish.

It's green on the reverse side, and she can wear it both ways. She gave me a third piece of vintage fabric, which I have an idea for...

This is another top I made for Ginger last week. It looks great on her, too, but I haven't photographed her wearing it.

Isn't this fun fabric? I used a little of it in the quilt I can't show, but I have some left, and I'm thinking of making a cover or tote for my iPad mini with it.

Quilty Signs of Spring

There are signs of Spring at Cookseyville, both inside and out.

That postcard is by Del Thomas. I bought it at an auction, raising money for Alzheimer's research.

An oldie but a goodie, garden-themed quilt featuring my husband. This one has been to Europe and Japan, not to mention Houston.

"A Dance to Spring," featuring my mother. Her bracelet says "Margie." Part of the Noble Seasons exhibit.

The kumquat trees are loaded with ripe fruit.

Spring colors on this "Hidden Investments" update. There's a pattern of it still available through Jukebox.

Darn, my photo of plum blossoms didn't come through. I'll post it later.
