Finished and bound! I really like how the quilting turned out! The patterns have bunnies and carrots making it a sweet spring themed baby quilt.

The flowers for May are Lily of the Valley and Hawthorn. If you are wondering what these monthly flower images are for, don't worry, so am I. They had a purpose originally but I didn't like the end result of the project. I do definitely like the images, so I want to finish creating the series. We'll see where it goes.

The panda is eating the shadow of the tree. Did the artist plan that or is it just a very cool happenstance?

For the last 6 months, I have been going through the formal education for the WSU Master Gardener program. Its been many, many hours of reading, studying, videos, activities and quizzes. I recently passed the final exam which took about 3 hours. My score in the class is 96.35%. Hurray! I'm now an intern and have 40 hours of community service left to complete.

Passed!

It's a blue bird day.

 

Finished quilting this blanket today and attached the first side of the binding.

It never gets old.

Many years ago I had to do a report on John Muir. As part of that I had to collect a bunch of his quotes, which I now appreciate immensely. So this next round of book marks will all be John Muir themed.
