A Rainy Day and Stitching Go Together

It's a rainy day so I can't work out in the yard...

and boy does our yard need work...

but with a little care it's starting to look real nice.

I can't wait to plant some flowers but...

they are talking snow tonight...

yes I said SNOW!

Now I know inpatients don't like snow!

I've been planting the same flowers in the same color for about 10 years...

hot pinks and white.

This year I'm changing my color pallet to...

red and purple with yellow and white.

I already bought some flowers...

red geraniums and little purple wave petunias

but I'm keeping them inside until we get some better weather.

Meanwhile...

I just can't stop stitching...I think it's the perfect craft to do when waiting for Jack to finish up baseball practice or lacrosse practice or piano lesson...yes, our spring is full of activities.
I thought I would try something new...
all the stitching is in soft white...
I like it...
it gives the penny rug a fresh more summery look.

I'm always getting ready for fall...I can't believe I just said the "f" word when we haven't even seen summer yet.

But I love sunflowers and fall is my favorite season...

I thought I would make a larger penny rug in my favorite penny rug color...

lime green...

I think it needs something in the middle...

or maybe not when you put something on top it will look perfect.

Enjoy your day,

Leanne
