The weather here in SC has been aweful this winter. The good new is that spring starts on Saturday and we are supposed to have some very very nice weather for the next few days. Some of the trees around town are in bloom, so amidst the bare limbs and too-often dreary skies there are some bursts of white and pink and yellow. It won't really be spring, though, until the magnolias and the dogwoods bloom. I'll remember to take pictures.
I find myself, once again, in the middle of a few projects that take too long to finish. I'm almost done with a couple of them, and I can't wait to show you! Until then, here is a little peek at some hair clips I made my niece. The Bean has beautiful reddish-blondish-auburny hair, so bright colors look really great on her. I already handed these over to my sister, and put the green star in Elizabean's hair myself and dang if it isn't the cutest thing! I did not have my camera at the time, but maybe next time I go home I can get her all dolled up and take a few snap shots. If they are still in one piece, that is. I was having a little trouble attaching the charms to the clips. We'll just pretend for now that they are still all stuck together.
You may recognize the colors, they are from her fabric covered letters I made last month. The letters, by the way, are being proudly displayed in her room above the window. Makes me feel all warm inside!
The Stitchin' Bee is underway! Our first Bee of the month already has her fabric packaged up, ready to be shipped. Follow along on the flickr page if you want! We have a group of 13 ladies, some who are old hands and some who have never sewn before but want to learn. I can't wait to see how things turn out!
Oh, and anyone out there with a bit of money to spare who wants to buy me this, go right ahead. I'll make you brownies in return. or perhaps a pillow :)
