March--hope for spring

Happy Monday, everyone. We had a nice weekend. My hubby's birthday was yesterday. We had a nice family dinner after church meetings and such. He opened his presents and reminded me that he would forget all about his birthday if it wasn't for the girls and me. He is funny!! He's also more handsome, wise and endearing the older he becomes--love him....LOTS!!!!

I have a new header. It is a picture of a quilt I made(my second one). I pieced it and then hand-quilted it. I named it "My Kids" because it reminds me of the brightness, goodness, and joy they bring to me. I thought it would be nice to display for spring. Hope all is well with you and yours.
Be Nice to People,
Julie

I just love that quilt. You hand quilted it? I am impressed. I tried hand quilting my first one(my 25 year old quilt) and ended up taking it all out and machine quilted it after my sweet Granny showed me how. Happy birthday to your husband.
