For me the hardest part of writing a blog post is the first sentence!! 
Where to start? 
And like so many I've read....They start out by saying something like.....
WOW ....HOW TIME FLIES.....Where have the days and months gone??
 So I know I am not alone when it comes to long stretches between blog posts!! 
Oh how I wish I were better at it....
.Oh how I wish I had the gift of writing.....of singing.....
of oh so many things!!! 
But here I am...just me....saying....
WOW HOW TIME FLIES!!!

I am leaving in the morning to head up north to vend at the
Sewing and Stitchery Expo in Puyallup, WA.
It's a great show!!
Lots to see and learn!!
I hope if you are in the area you get a chance to come!!

By the time we return it will be March!!!
I love March!!
Its the start of new things....
a new season....and FLOWERS!!!


 It is also the month Jeff and I got married.
We planned our wedding in March because Jeff
was a high school teacher at the time and it was Spring Break!!
We got married on the FIRST DAY OF SPRING!!!
And of course it rained!!!
That was 39 years ago this year!!


Anyway...that was a rabbit trail....
speaking of rabbits, I have a new pattern out called
Chubby Bunny!!
It's not on my website yet but if you are interested
send me a message and I will make sure you get one so you can
get it made before Easter!!!


ANYWAY....as I was saying.....
and my point is......
that it's almost March....
which brings us to such a fun FREE event!!
