Spring?

Officially spring is here. Today the sky is overcast and there is rain off and on. These last few weeks we have had lots of sunshine and mild temperatures and the snow is beginning to disappear. The cats are asking to go outside but they have not left the confines of our yard.
I have been busy with little sewing projects lately. I purchased the prettiest pale pink tablecloth quite some time ago. I did not look at it very carefully and when I got it home and took a good look I found that the middle of the cloth was very worn and there were a number of big holes. I decided to cut the middle of the cloth out. I saved the little pieces and put them aside. I carefully matched the two pieces and sewed them back together.
I will try and find some pink lace to sew around the edge to really make it pretty. I put it on the kitchen table. I am very pleased with the results. I love pink and a pink tablecloth is one of my favourite things.


I am doing some little things for me and the cottage. I have started making an apron. I got it all cut out and started sewing when I realized it was not going to be to my liking when it is finished. So I am going to have to go and purchase a piece of solid fabric as a lining. There are no fabric stores close to us. I am going to try a quilting store that opened not to long ago. Perhaps they will have what I need. 
I hope you are enjoying your weekend.

Love Always,
Kim
