Lilac's and Fishing

Today's treasure (and pleasure) - Lavendar lilac's and Gone Fishing that is. It's a Lavendar day.

The lilac's smell fantastic this morning! We've been waiting for these since moving to our acreage 7 years ago. I remember the scent on our farm as a little girl. The lilac's lined our drive and it was such a joy to come home to them after school each Spring. I say we've been waiting 7 years for these because each year since moving to the country the lilac's would just begin to bud when lo and behold - a late Spring freeze and they were all gone. Finally - this year - they are making up for lost time and I am savoring every moment. Gosh I love Spring!

And after leaving the country this morning I started quilting my "Gone Fishing". This quilt will look amazing on the wall. I can't wait to have it finished. The top has been done for a while. Am quilting it now. You should see it hanging in the front window soon! Quilt top and binding kit and pattern available at Borders!
