Pretty cute and a nice piece for a youngster (pre-teen, early teen) to learn some new stitches - Rice Stitch, Fan Stitch, Rhodes Stitch, Eyelet Stitch, and Satin Stitch - and working with beads.
While the rains and cool weather continue, Spring nonetheless attempts to "March on to May".
How can you not be happy looking at this Pansy?
And I am so pleased with my Hostas...
I over-wintered them on the front porch - just shoved the pots under an old picnic bench.
We had two or three spells of very cold weather - 10F-15F and I took no extra precautions...
It would appear that almost all the Hostas survived and are getting ready for another year's show.
I think Pansies are the garden's happy faces - thank you for visiting my blog! Yes, our season is a combination here - very, very short Spring - starts in February - now we're verging on Summer! Hot!
