I Spy / One Flower Wednesday

I was able to finish two flowers this week for my
 Grandmother's Flower Garden quilt.

At least progress is being made...

...and I was once again able to participate in One Flower Wednesday.
My pile is growing ever so slowly...sigh.


Here are the latest fabrics for the
I Spy Swap!



Fabrics received from Chiska.
Chiska also sent along a lovely charm square
and two chocolate bunnies! 


I was intrigued with the artisic wrapping on the bunnies.
So cute!
Thank your for your thoughtfulness Chiska!

However,
I'm afraid the bunnies did not survive until Easter:)



Fabrics received from Cindy.



Fabrics received from Frances.



Fabrics received from Jenny.




Fabric received from Sharon at Camp Granmma.




 Fabric received from Annie at Adventures in Oz.

Annie also sent along this cute little embroidery scissors as a gift.
 These will come in handy. Thank you Annie!

At this point we are waiting for the last four packages of fabric to arrive.
We should be on target to complete the swap by May 1st as planned!

Latest I Spy Fabrics

Looks like another rainy day in my neck of the woods.
How about where you live?
Seems like the perfect opportunity to get a little sewing done
and watch my favorite Jane Austen movie.

Pride and Prejudice  is a classic tale of love and misunderstanding,
and was nominated for four Academy Awards.
If you haven't seen it yet I assure you it is very entertaining.


Here are the latest fabrics for the
I Spy Swap!



Fabrics received from Patty.



Fabrics received from Shigae.



Fabrics received from Raquel.



Fabrics received from Vickie.

At this point I have heard from all the swappers and have been told
that all fabrics are in the mail and headed this way.
 We should be on target to wrap up the swap by May 1st as planned!

All I Spy fabrics can be viewed on flickr
so be sure to check out the cute designs and leave a comment.

May you always Sew in Peace:)
