First monday in spring....

and Easter is comming soon.
I like to make some Easter decorations myself this year.
 Not sure what to make, yet. I like to use these fabrics
 think I need to add some yellow.

make some Easter decorations
 
Yellow...like these lovely yellow tulips.

I'm usually not so fond of Monday mornings...I'm a slow starter.
But this morning started of really wel!
I've got a wonderful surprise in the mail send to me by sabine from Smila's World 
She thought I would love these fabulous ribbons..and she was so right.
I do love these a lot!! Thanks Sabina! 

fabulous ribbons

Granny update:
I've decided that 100 grannies are enough to make this granny blanket.
So I started crochet the border and I think I'll end with scallops as finishing touch.

Have a good start to this week

Lint...daar kan ik nou ook nooit genoeg van hebben! En geel vind ik nou DE kleur voor pasen en het voorjaar! Geniet ervan, je deken wordt ook mooi, hopelijk heb je hem voorlopig even niet nodig!

Oh wow! That stack of fabrics is gorgeous! I look forward to seeing what you make.
We went to the tulip festival (http://www.tulipfestival.org/) last weekend, but most of them hadn't bloomed yet... :(

Do you why I love your blog?
Aside from the beautiful thigs you make, and despite the wonderful things you say...
it's the colors. They are bright and happy and never fail to make me smile :)
