A little hope for spring

It is so cold here, not as bad as many other places but still.  I have had enough of this.  Anyway, I made this for a friend from some leftovers that were hanging around the studio.  Love the colors and the way they work on the patchwork quilt.

Baby Shower

Yesterday I attended a baby shower for the daughter of a friend since elementary school!  Karen and I have been friends for many years and it has been a pleasure to be friends with her and her family for so long.  I did the flowers for Sarah's wedding (my paper flower wedding for Sarah and David posted in August 2017, also pictured on this blog) and wanted to use at least some of the flowers from her bouquet in this new piece.  I love this large Accent Decor vase - it is the right style for this group, and went to town with Juliette garden roses, long stemmed hellebore (my absolute favorite flower), peach Cloni ranuculus, astrantia, babies breath, eucalyptus and dusty miller.  Such fun to be part of their wonderful day.
