    Still getting the hang of Miss MAM, my 1926 Singer 201-2. This 28" wallhanging has a few eyelashes on the back but I did a lot less ripping and the few eyelashes are small. So, I feel like I'm starting to get the hang of it finally! I saw a couple cute chocolate bunnies on the web and had to go for that.

    I just printed out a bunny shape and a tulip shape. The tulips I did cut freehand while just looking at the shape so that they would all be a little different.

    And I'll show you a bit of spring here. Things are blooming and I still don't have all the leaves up. And the streetside garden is undergoing some reno. Lirope got out of control so we dug it out (pretty much - I know I'll battle it forever now!) and I haven't planted much back yet in those spots.

    The violets are taking over this year though. I have not seen this many before. We probably need to treat before they kill off all the grass but I hate to because the kitties like to go out and "graze". I call them my little holsteins.
