I Like Thursday # 134 ~ Spring in the Scrapatch from Life in the Scrapatch



Welcome to my post for

I Like Thursday @ Not Afraid of Color 

where my friends and I share our weekly smiles. 

I have been playing with my yarn and made this free style crochet flower and leaf.


These lovely pink forget me nots bloomed this morning in my yard.
I planted these in memory of my Butterfly Kitty ~ R.I.P. 2017 
Every year when they bloom the memories they bring make me smile.


I have more spring blooms to share today.
This bush is by my back steps and the tiny blooms have a spicy, sweet fragrance
that perfumes ...

Jelly Beans & Jelly Rolls Time from Life in the Scrapatch


I have lots of jelly rolls.

These would be a good choice for the




I think the white jelly roll would be the darkest fabric with this choice.
The red would be the binding fabric.

Hunting for jelly beans and just the right jelly roll ....


I also found these 3 half-yards of fabrics and small ombre jelly roll.

The house print would be the medium blue, I think.
The text print the lightest fabric in the cross.

Hmmmmmmm ...  choices, choices.

Which would you ...

My DrEAMi Moment for March from Life in the Scrapatch





The squirrels outside have been enjoying an early spring here 
and have been chasing each other up and down and all around
the trees in our backyard.
My indoor quilty kitties have spent hours watching
squirrel-vision out the windows. 

The quilty ideas have been squirreling around with my quilty muse.

I know you have seen a lot of this little guy on my blog this month,
but he is getting a few more posts.

On review, I realized he was very much my
  "Drop Everything and Make it" project of the month.
