Saturday Sparks Link Party 328

Welcome to Saturday Sparks 328!

Starting off todays party with some clippings from our Black Locust tree.


Adding touches of nature to our home is one of life's simple pleasures.

In my mind, a vase of fresh cut flowers carries with it the sunshine of a day.

"Just living is not enough...one must have sunshine, freedom and a little flower."

~ Hans Christian Andersen

A Modified Mystery Quilt

This quilt is a recent finish of mine. It's always nice to complete a project as it gives you permission to start something new. 😊


The pattern is from an online mystery quilt challenge hosted by the National Quilters Circle. It's called 'Ice Crystals' and was designed by the talented Toby Lischko.

It was a 6 week challenge with the final quilt revealed at the end.

Unfortunately, the final layout wasn't really 'my style'.  With that in mind,  I veered off the path and came up with a different design for the paper pieced blocks.


As in life, we each see things with a different eye.

There is no right or wrong way - just our own unique style.

The world would be awful boring if we all did everything the same, don't you think!

Saturday Sparks Link Party 327

Welcome to Saturday Sparks 327!

Starting off todays party with our latest guest.


This sweet doe has been here off and on over the past week.

Much to our surprise, she showed up with a freshly born fawn the other morning.

Ever so carefully, she hid the fawn in a patch of tall grass while she ventured out to feed.

All the while, she kept a mindful eye on her hidden treasure.

"Look deep into nature, and then you will understand everything better."

~ Albert Einstein
