Happy Fathers day to everyone. I love Fathers day. It feels nice to make a special day for Dads (and my husbands idea of the perfect fathers day is to spend this day at home with no particular plans, and just with his family). This Loudon Wainright III song always makes me think of the special bond between Fathers and their daughters.. So thought I'd share it today.

The 'finished' quilt
The eagerly anticipated 'folded' quilt shot..
The showing off of the 'hand stitching' of the binding (It really wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be?) and it was nice to have something to do with my hands while I was watching Play School and other ABC2 entertainment each day
and the final shot has to be of the 'additional colour' Lola thought needed to be added to one of the squares..
Stick out your tongue and look 'shifty' if you're guilty of drawing on mama's Lola quilt with red crayon? Anyone?

The first day of Spring..

Today was the first day of Spring, and we spent all afternoon in the garden planting sunflowers (how very 'spring-y' of us!) and preparing the vegetable garden for Round 2 of planting.
For some great pictures of sunflowers at different stages of opening, head on over to the All Things Quilty blog
