Flowering trees and a good sewing weekend...

Blossoms
We had a cold night Sunday night but no frost.  
The trees still look great but
tonight the temperature is to go down to 24F
and they are calling it a killer freeze not a damaging frost.
I've covered my rhubarb plants...they have grown so much in the last week!
I planted 4 rhubarb plants 2 years ago, only 2 came back last year
and this year I still  have 2.....

I did manage to get some sewing done this weekend.  
I finished stitching the last block of Bird Brain Designs.
Love Me, My Cat Redwork Quilt

BB Luv My Cats8
I finished hand stitching the last Dresden Plate to the background fabric.
Now I have to trim the blocks and start the sashing and corner stones.
I would really like to get the blocks put together this week....wish me luck..:o)
Dresden Plate 
Sorry to say...I have not put the borders on my purple log cabin quilt ...yet!!
Still trying to decide on the borders.
I did manage to make the binding for 3 quilts
and stitch them to the quilt tops
and
2 of the quilts have the binding hand stitched down...yippee!!
1 to go and I'll have 3 quilts finished....
2 of them are UFO's..5 or 6 years old and
the 3rd one is a quilt I started in November.
I'll have pictures on my next post...


I think I had a very good sewing weekend.
hugs and happy stitching...
