Saturday, March 17, 2007Spring... for real!

The first daffies to bloom in my yard. But the jays are nesting in the rose bush and the robins are raising the dickens all day long now. I even got out there with the rake and clened up some leaves and satuff that I didnt' do last fall. In fact, I'm getting ready to go crank up the mower and see if I can help out the lawn a bit. Wish me luck!

I've never worked with pastels before but we did a little thing in class Monday and I rather enjoyed it so wanted to try this girl and I think she turned out pretty well, all in all. I also think I'm going to enjoy working with this medium! Have work in the loom shop today, too, and knitting projects to finish for my book and a new weaving project underway, that I've been asked to do for someone else's book. That's exciting, if I can pull it off. And the crocus and windflowers are blooming, trees are budding... I'm getting the outdoors urges, as I know you are , too. Daylight saving time does not give us long enough days, no matter what they claim!
