Orange.

Very little time has been spent in the sewing room, lots have been spent hand quilting a wedding quilt.
The fabric is a bright blue, yet it is not showing the true colour. Lots of quilting still to go.
RSC23 for May is Orange. Finding the way has orange in it, so these blocks got done. April was a very busy month and the purple blocks needs some more work before they can be added to the collection.
The weather has cleared up and walks on the nature trails is on our calendar. This is some of the local beaver ponds, last night we saw four beavers.
Two swam to each other and gave each other a hug or a kiss.
Wild violets growing along the path. Frogs was out and about too.
Bunnies have been in scarce supply, normally we would have seen lots by now. This is only the second one so far.
The garden is taking off too. The carrots are up, lettuce, onions, garlic and all the fingerling potatoes broke through the soil this past week. Beans have been planted, haricots with their beautiful orange red flowers, the hummingbirds love these ones.
Tulips are all flowering too. Spring is defintely one of our favourite seasons now.

  4. How lovely to be living near to beaver ponds, that would be so nice to see. No beavers here in New Zealand, but we did see couple on a trip to Juneau, such lovely industrious creatures.
