The First Weekend of Spring

It was a beautiful weekend here. I got a lot done, even though I have a cold that is trying to develop into a sinus infection.  Just a tip for all you readers, when you go to the doctor's office for a checkup, don't touch the magazines (or anything else.) Sanitze like crazy! Or else you might come out of the doctor's office with an unwanted illness.  

Here is one of the finished Easter Egg Wallhangings. This one has blue egg and is trimmed with an Easter border print. It is backed with a scrap of vintage sheeting and bound with the same white as the background.  My aunt saw it just as I was finishing it and expressed her desire that it come live at her house. So be it.

I made these bird nest pins this weekend.  They are inspired by the ones made by Betz White.  I am thinking these might be fun to make in a larger size using larger felt beads. The larger ones would not be for wearing as pins, but rather to decorate a shelf. These are made with felted wool sweaters and wool beads by Handbehg. 
This is my first blog post on my new-to-me computer.

Thanks, little honey, I love it!
