A bit of February warmth from Arizona




This is the lovely sampler that arrived today from Pam in Arizona. She said she thought I could use a bit of Spring. It has just begun to snow again, and it is so very cold here is St. Louis. She is absolutely right!

I love the textured fabric. I'm not positive, but it looks like a piece of vintage duck cloth to me, which is something I dearly love. Such beautiful detailing, from her expert machine stitching to the sparkling sequins to the hand-stitched message "SPRING". I especially love the touch of butterscotch(one of my favorite colors!)in the lace accent. Even the back is a lovely bit of patchwork. Perfect.

Thank you so much, Pam. It is a cherished addition to my growing garland!

I'm so glad you like it. I hope you survived the most recent snow storm. Hopefully spring is just around the corner in your "neck of the woods".
