Happy Monday Everyone! I hope you had a wonderful weekend! Ours was full of sunshine and blue skies. A very welcome change indeed. There are signs of spring showing up everywhere, even in the grocery stores. It’s strawberry season in Florida and that means good sales on strawberries here in Southwestern Ontario. I just happen to have a pattern with…
Happy Monday! And welcome to the 1st Vintage Embroidery Monday of April! Spring has definitely arrived in this little pocket that Dave and I call home.

Happy Monday! I hope you had a wonderful weekend. Last week was a glorious week weather-wise, making it feel like spring. Friday, I was even able to go for my walk without wearing a jacket. We’re back to cooler temperatures now but it won’t be long before things will be green again and the plants will be poking their heads…
