Happy Saint Patrick's Day

Happy Saint Patrick's Day!I finished my calendar quilt. I found this clover fabric in my stash and I used it for today's strip on the calendar quilt.  The embroidery comes from Ellie's Quiltplace.  Click on the button on my side bar if you would like to do them too.
Some photos of spring arriving!

OH! I just love your Calendar quilt!

I just have to take your word for it Carrie...about Spring coming, i.e. Although it's melting, we still have lots of snow in these parts although virtually nothing 20miles south of here.

I just love the clover fabric. I first saw it on Karen's blog and she used it for the basket in the TAT BOM.

Carrie, do you know the name of the shrub with the white flowers that you showed us? It almost looks like a northern version of a Bleeding Heart.

Happy St. Pat's to you too! My husband's dad was born in Belfast so I guess I'm half Irish. LOL

Happy St. Patrick's Day! And I love your March stitchery piece!

How great was that to find clover fabric in your stash! Oh hurry Spring. So the weatherman says here "3 more snows after the forsythia blooms"...hmmm...our forsythia has not bloomed yet so April Snow Showers?

Kerri said...

Happy St. Patrick's Day!! I love all the blossom pictures you took. I can't wait still I see them blooming around here. :)

Look at all the green, I love your pictures, especially the last one, what is the plant, Andromdeda?

Robin said...

Carrie, your calendar quilt is fabulous! And thank you for sharing a little bit of Spring. :)

Karen said...

Love the clover fabric! :) I think your March Calendar is my favourite, so far. Maybe because I love green so much. Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Happy St. Pat's day! That calendar quilt is sooo pretty! Green is my very most favorite color (next to orange).. and I just love the way you put this together! So beautiful!

Thank you for the pictures of spring, I know it's somewhere under the snow someplace. I have a vague memmory of trees with leaves and flowers.

I was in Charlotte yesterday and Spring was really poppin' there, a week or more ahead of here... I am SO ready! Love your calendar strips, the embroidery is wonderful, too.

OMG! This fabric is gorgeous....I saw it on another blog used for the basket of this month's Tisket Tasket! Now I can't remember who's! It was gorgeous!! Is it a new fabric line?
