​Spring has arrived in my gardens! The daffodils have given way to the Ajuga, and Clematis and the dinnerplate sized Bartzella and Martha Washington peonies and the roses are all covered with buds. Perinneals are peeping up from the soil and I have already cut back the Chocolate Vines as they were attempting to stangles nearby trees twice. I am far behind on my 'Garden Things To Do List', as usual but that is OK. The gardens seem to thrive in spite of me and recent temperature dips into the 30s reminded me that I should not plant veggies or invest in lovely hanging baskets until after May 1.

The last of the Scottish Castle Etui kits will be in the mail tomorrow.  I am so excited about teaching this class in England this October and will present another YouTube to show my model soon.

Threads for the class I'm teaching for Queen City Sampler Guild on June 28 have arrived and once the linen gets here I can get things kitted up so I can mail them out the last week of May.

I have decided to announce a Spring 20% Off Sale on all items on my website beginning today and lasting through April 21st. This will my new designs: 1779 Queen Stitch Sampler, 1814 Scottish Call To Arms Sampler, the Ellen M. J. Murray Sampler, MESDA's Eliza Baynard Sampler, Ellen's Pin Drum, and Fit For a Queen Pin Cushion.

Happy Spring and Happy Stitching!
