This "little piggie went to market"! I was at Lahsedt for the Spring Market on Sunday. This was the first time that I spent the  time at market by myself. My husband set up the tent for me and the quilt hanger and then the rest was up to me to do. We had lots of rain on Sunday afternoon, so the traffic was very light. But I learned quite a bit by doing this. At the end, my husband came back and and helped me pack up and take the tent down..... I had a wonderful visit with my friends while there and had their help as well! A very good learning experience for me!

And here are a couple of spring beauties for you to enjoy! These are also going to Market with me on Sunday!

I finally have finished doing all the embroidery work for the upcoming Market on Sunday. I wanted to share with you the daffodils that I embroidered for a dish towel in keeping with my Daffodil theme. My little daffodils are now in full bloom and I am enjoying them when ever I walk by them to go to the car. 

Here are the results of the dyeing the other day! I think that the yellow is pretty close to what I was aiming for! Underneath is the quilt that I have come up with. I will make it up using the dyed fabrics and see how it all turns out. I am really excited about this!! Have ordered the white fabric to use with it. I am already thinking about how I am going to quilt this quilt. Do I use an edge to edge or do I use custom quilting of some kind? Who knows what it will be......

Spring is coming slowly to the area where I live! I have been watching these daffodils start to grow and then finally bloom. I got the idea about dyeing fabrics to match the yellow in this picture. I spent some time yesterday looking at two colors quilts and finally narrowing my choices down to a few to see what really hits me once the fabric comes out of the dyer.
Stay to tuned to see what happens today when it has finished the washing and drying part of the process!

Hurray! Spring is almost here!! I have spent some time in my dye room and made these wonderful jelly rolls for quilters. If you don't know what a jelly roll, this is what they are. They are strips of fabric that is 2.5 inches wide  and are cut the length of the fabric. They are really fun to use in quilts! One can use them alone, or add other fabrics to the selection. I have used them both ways and either way is fun!
