The Merry Month of May, what shall we say?

And spring is in full swing here in the wild and gentle folds of our Lilac Thicket.  Hubby has now mowed the yard 3 times!  We have had the most magnificent blue skies as of late.  It is a heavenly deep sky blue which soothes the eye and soul.

I had to set down Festive Feathers.  That kit floss was driving me insane, knotting constantly.  I have started a new project however.  I wanted something fun and whimsical and started on Jardin Prive's "Easter Welcome".  

It is a delightful design and I love the houses that remind me of mushrooms.  All the eggs are brown and tan and there is my beloved pink front and center.  I have just started this with the called for colors and have the top left house and daisy stitched.  The different elements could be easily pulled out and stitched to create a sweet card too.  I will post a progress picture at a later time.

I also managed to get all my loose DMC wrangled up and put away. I found a big box of DMC down in the basement in a cupboard I highjacked for storage of my paper products, toilet paper, paper towels and facial tissue.  I didn't know anything was in it.  Hubby must have snuck stuff in there.  I am slowly working on the pile o' crap in the Happy Room and getting it sorted.  I am terrible at putting things away in here.  I spend 80% of my waking hours in here and you would think I would be more vigilant in keeping it neat.   Well that is wishful thinking.

Just a quick update in the sanity of my beloved home in the healing folds of our Lilac Thicket.  God Bless!
