Hello Spring, I'm just calling to see if you plan on stopping by.......

Another day of snow, falling and falling......I do love snow but I have had enough and I am looking for Spring. I made a fabric teacup with little trims and a wee spot of tea.....dyed a few bits and bobs of lace lavender and violet, trying to invite Spring to come and stay for good.......
 We have had at least two feet of snow in the last week, I had my last surgery on my ankle (hope it was) and now I would love to be able to go outside and enjoy some fresh air, birds singing, anything to help me feel encouraged.....just not more snow, oy....


 While stitching at the conservatory the other with several stitcher sisters, I cam across these lovely Daphane Violets, I brought these two home thinking it would bring some Spring into my home....aren't they pretty? I didn't know that there were such sweet violets like these.....
 Have you been trying to coax Spring to come and stay too?

 Red velvet heart (not finished) needs some ribbon embroidery done....
 My tiny stitches....sorry I only managed to stitch one little piece of the scissor fob. I promise to show you work when it's finished.
I sincerely wish everyone has a Happy Heart Day!!!!!
