You see down Briarside Lane, dragonflies dance in the dahlia's. Hee,hee,hee.
I also got lots of fun new Valdani 3 Strand Overdyed Floss in our Shop! Check out these colors!

I love your blog and your quilts. I am a follower and I am collecting your directions for the BOM. I will start them soon. I want to thank you for your nice picture of my quilt "Birding" that was at Mid Atlantic. It made my day.
Stitch in a little bird-bath and you can certify that as a Backyard Habitat!
I have been working on getting BL to help me sew a button on a shirt.
Your Folk Art Fusion projects are pretty great. Looking forward to your book!
This is so beautiful, the colours are so vibrant!
I'm working on more pencil cases from reclaimed fabric. One more to make then I'll need to think what to do with another stash of reclaimed fabric....
Hi Michelle,
I just found your blog, and I think I am really going to enjoy it. I'm your newest follower.
I was interested in the picture of the Valdani threads. I noted it says colorfast, and was happy to see that. I have some hand dyed floss and I do remember the tag saying they are not colorfast. I was thinking I can't use this kind of thread in anything but samplers, etc, that probably won't be washed. I'm happy to make this little discovery thanks to you! it's so nice to meet you.

I love the use of warm and cool colors! (Do I sound like I know what I'm talking about?)
Jon is deathly afraid of dragonflies. and butterflies. :-x
I luuvv the dragon flies. I have dragon fly stuff in my house along w/ bunny stuff. :)
Love your new fusion piece Shell, so inventive, the dragonfly wings look like flower petals! Can't wait for May, I desperately need your new book! And is it fate that Michelle May's new book is coming out in May?! The Valdani colours are wonderful, I especially love the 'Teracotta Twist' and the 'Raspberry Fizz', nummy! I've got a couple of orders to finish up this week and then I HAVE TO get stitching on my Harrington and Hannah BOM, yikes it's almost March 15th and time for the next block! Echoing your thoughts and prayers for those affected by the tornadoes, such a terrible tragedy :O(
That is so pretty!
Dragonflies and Dahlias is a smile maker. Thanks.
Briarwood Lane is going to be gorgeous!! Love this latest design, and LOVE those Valdani colours!
