The Girls and Their Body Guard...

Jack is only 2 years older than Eva, but I never noticed how much bigger he is! (Eva and Bekah are 2 years apart also.) These are the girls' Easter dresses and you can see I did get their doll dresses finished. I just kept it real simple. Sarah gave me that butterfly fabric a couple years ago and it's been waiting for just such a project. Eva has a thing for "cute" bugs. When they walked into church, some one said they expected me to be dressed like them... um, nope, I'm not so much a fan of purple butterflies. At least not this version. But they look very sweet on the girls.

I have been trying to keep things simple. I have accomplished a lot of from my list. Even added a few more- like I need more to do! I am starting a "new" Thimbleberry quilt for my Mom. Tanya from the quiltshop just gave me the pattern and the fabric- already cut!- so it's all fun, now! Do you remember the Thimbleberry Village pattern? It's been a while back- years, since it came out. Tanya decided that she hated it and wouldn't spend any of her time working on it. It'll go perfectly in my folks barn, though. I have also been working on Sarah's quilt challenge quilt. Each year we challenge each other to make a quilt. This year it is to be a two color quilt- unless Sarah cheats again. Rules are meant to be broken by some folks! I'm teasing. She gave me a very pretty, soft green to work with and it hasn't been a trial- much. It is all going smoothly- I'm sure she is relieved to hear this. Sarah is the type to plot and plan everything out and I tend to fly by the seat of my pants, so I think I worry her sometimes! But don't worry Sarah. I'm right on schedule. Now if I can only get the 4 quilts done that need to be finished in the next couple weeks!
