What a blustery day!
The kind that reminds me of Pooh Bear and his friends hanging on for dear life!
The wind has been blowing in tumble weeds from 3 counties over today! And the dust is flying for sure. Not the prettiest of Spring days. Sure to stir up some allergies.
Living out on the plains, I never feel too comfortable when these Spring winds and storms kick up. But I did manage to go outside and un-stick piles of tumbleweeds from the bases of the bushes.
Be free tumbleweeds! It's kinda fun!
I been working on a little quilt project for a swap.
I have never done any kind of quilting and decided this would be a fun way to wet my feet.
I love to visit all my blogger buddies blogs that quilt and look at their talent.
is the Swap Mama of this fun swap.
She has the greatest blog so you must go visit her!
She set me up with my partner
Another great quilter that I can learn so much from!
Please visit her as well.
Now look at this pretty journal covered in a little chicken theme!
Karen sure figured out what would make me smile from ear to ear, Yes this is such an adorable cover.
She made this block of the hen and it is way too cute!
Don't you just love the fabrics? Great color choices, Karen!
Yes, that is chicken wire print.
Oh, my!!!
Look at the print on the back. A chicken yard!
Thank you Karen, you are so sweet.
I just love my chicken themed Journal Cover!!
I just love my chicken themed Journal Cover!!

Karen was so encouraging to me on this swap project!
And here is a picture of the inside.
Thank you both Cheryll and Karen!
