I just wanted to share this beautiful quilt that my daughter Allie just finished....I am so proud of her! She did a wonderful job and I think she has the "quilting bug" for good now. She's even been building a "stash"...lol
I don't have much to show lately...just plugging away on various projects. I should have a few finishes in the next few weeks...I am enjoying the warmer, more Springlike weather and on most days Jay and I can be seen touring around the yard to see the new life poking through the ground. I came home yesterday to this lovely bunch of daffodils. They smell so nice! Thank you honey!
If the weekend is nice we'll have to do more than tour the yard...lol...it's time to get it cleaned up from the harsh Winter that we've had. FYI my daughter's gave me the set of tiny bowls for my birthday last year and I LOVE them :o)
Have a wonderful day! ranette

Woohoo Allie!!! Your quilt looks great! I love the rainbow of colours!!
Beautiful daffodils!
I also love that quilt - it dances. how thrilling for you, Ranette, that you share a common interest with your girl. She did a great job!
I also love those darling bowls and the flowers. That is a fabulous picture.
Sunny and in the 80's next week, baby!! Yeah spring!
I think it is wonderful to share your talents of quilting with your daughter! I wish my mom would have quilted. :-)
Hugs!!
what a great looking quilt - congratulations on making it!
I need to cut some daffodils and bring them in also - but I think I will wait until afternoon so they can dry off from the rain that we got during the night.

I am so proud of Allie it is inspiring for me. I too love the little bowls. To bad we don't any pretty flowers in our yard (ever). I will just have to covet yours.
Next time I am there all of us can sew together. YEAH!!!!

You better keep an eye on your stash, it may start to disappear. LOL
What a lovely quilt. You must be so proud.
I just happened onto your blog this morning and I am happy that I did! Your daughter can be very proud of her darling quilt. She's done a beautiful job.
The quilt reminds me of a rainbow.
Allie did a wonderful job.
Allie did a fantastic job on her quilt.
I just picked a huge bouquet of daffodils from my yard this morning. Daffodils are one of my favorite flowers, as I know warmer days are on the way!
Allie's quilt looks fantastic and I love the bunch of daffodils. It is Autumn here and I think I may have to go to the nursery and buy another bag of bulbs to plant in readiness for Spring.
You can be proud of your daughter, she did a wonderful job!! Love the colours! I love the smell of daffodils! During spring time I always have daffodils and hyacinths in the livingroom: Even when it rains outside... spring is here hihi!! Take care, Daniƫlle
It's so fun when our daughters catch THIS bug, isn't it?
I got flowers from Tim recently too. Aren't they sweet? (Husbands AND flowers!)
Me again!!!

Allie's quilt is the bomb-diggety! get ready to hear, "are you gonna use this for anything? how 'bout this one? and this?"
we are two lucky women, Ranette - both of us have quilting daughters!
my daffodils just started poking up their leaves (before the 10 inches of snow day before yesterday) - it will be a while before your "favorite flower" is blooming here
Great quilt, congratulations to Allie, it's a real achievement and it's very beautiful. Love your bowls too.
Wowee! Allie did a fabulous job. Good for her.
We have daffodils coming up too.
Those bowls match that quilt perfectly.
oh Daffodils always say spring to me
I think I need to go buy a bunch too!
we are having a rainy dreary day and I am so ready for spring.
love those bowls very pretty.

Allie is off to a great start!
