Daffodils

Judy posted pictures of daffodils and daphne. Got me thinking.

It's far from daffodil time here in the southern hemisphere, but I love them very much. I've been collecting daffodil fabrics for many years. My favourite is the Hoffman, bottom right, I must have had it for 10 years. I bought many of these over the internet, some from ebay. Once I bought some vintage daffodil fabric, had it sent to an internet buddy because the seller didn't ship outside the US. Sent the buddy the money for the shipping to me. Never heard from her again. Ever. Phooey.
Look, there's a quilt here isn't there? A giant 9-patch I think, which will go together quickly.
The computer is going to move over for now, because this is such a pretty corner to sit and sew. I'm coveting a Sew Ezi table. It's just what this room needs.


Dear E&A, view pictures are not intended to make you homesick and hurry home.

Oh, and I'm feeling good thanks, I have been for a lovely long walk. Now, where did I put my rotary cutter?

Glad you are feeling better. Love to know how the sew-ezi table works out. Wouldn't mind one myself.

What a view! Love the daffs stuff, and looking forward to seeing what you create.

A good walk always seems to do the trick!
Next time you want to buy fabric that is deliverable only to the US, please do business with me...I'm honest and dependable, I promise!!
Get busy on that quilt...I want to see pics very soon.

Lovely view. I also find walking to be helpful.
