 2 degrees - 35 F - today and a little sunshine





I didn't really want to dry this shirt, I wanted to take a photo for you :-)



I took advantage of the cold, wet time and read, spent a lot of time in the forest and sewed... 

I would like to show two things, this little bag that became a gift and the shirt that I sewed for myself in anticipation of the warm season.





There is usually no wind at the shed, which is where the photo was taken.



It was fun to sew the shirt and celebrate the anticipation of summer with this bright yellow :-)




Enjoy...


The black woodpecker is my companion this spring




The tulips in the garden bloom for a particularly long time in this weather.






I wish you a wonderful week. 

Thanks for stopping by.

  10. It looks like a clothes drying kinda day there, Viola. Fabulous photos. Sweet little bag from pretty Tula fabrics and the blouse you sewed is lovely. A walk in the woods sounds divine, and of course, the tulips are a dream. Enjoy your springtime, lovely Viola.

  11. I love "seeing" the wind by how your shirt is blowing. That's an excellent idea. And it might be chilly but you have some beautiful spring flowers and leaves too.

  17. Hej Viola!
    Jag blir sugen på att sy då jag ser dina fina skapelser. Tyvärr blir det mest att lappa jeans. Så långt våren har kommit, vi har inget grönt i träden ännu.
    Ha det bra /Hälsningar Marika

  18. Ja, her blåste det veldig! Vi har også hatt mye vind i Oslo/Norge.
    Det er fint vær nå, men kaldt. De tulipanene var fine. Det er litt tidlig her hos oss. Og så mye fint du lager. Du er kjempeflink!
    Takk for flotte bilder. Hilsen Tove/fargeneforteller

  21. Seeing the shirt you made blowing in the wind, took me back to my childhood days when my Mom hung the clothes out on the clothesline to dry in the wind! I enjoy seeing your crafts and also your cheerful colourful photos of what spring looks like where you live!

  26. It’s also cold here and windy. Your sewing for the summer is very nice and bright. The garden is also very nice at the moment but too cold to sit outside.
    I wish you a nice week!

    AntwortenLöschen
  27. It has been cold here in Belgium too, but still a bit warmer than the 2°C you're experiencing! At least you were able to spend your time indoors wisely by sewing that gorgeous bag and shirt!
    What a wonderful variety of tulips! Your photos do look positively springlike, even if the temperature was not ...
    Wishing you a nice - and hopefully warmer - week ahead! xxx

  35. Hallo Viola, das ist eine tolle Bluse geworden und das kleine Detail gefällt mir ausnehmend gut. Ich habe gehört, dass der Winter nach Deutschland zurückgekehrt ist; ich hoffe, deine Tulpen sind jetzt nicht mit Schnee bedeckt. Die kleine Tasche mit der Eule ist auch ganz süß. Leider habe ich null Talent für`s Nähen. Meine Tochter hat auch immer alles Mögliche genäht, inklusive ihre Halloween Kostüme. Ich wünsche dir eine gute Woche! - Carola

  38. Hello! Your pictures are lovely. I love the little bag and the shirt.

  39. Das gelbe Shirt ist so schön genäht und ich hoffe, dass Du es bald tragen kannst. Die Tasche ist ein ganz besonders schöner Hingucker mit der Eule, so perfekt genäht. Der April ist noch viel zu kalt und wir brauchen die Wärme für unsere Pflanzen. Durch den Spätfrost vor ein paar Tagen sind einige Hortensienblüten erfroren, das ist so schade. Die Tulpen sind wohl hart im Nehmen, sie blühen so wunderbar und die gefranste rote Tulpe ist mein Favorit.
    Liebe Viola, ich wünsche Dir einen wunderbaren Abend und schicke liebe Grüße mit.
    Herzlich Traudi.💗 aus dem Drosselgarten.

  40. Hei. >Så fin bluse du har sydd, og det bildet bak på ryggen , var prikken over i-en. Her hos meg er det kaldt med kun 4-5 varmegrader og litt sol. Vi lengter etter varme nå og håper på det skjer snart. Vakre tulipaner. Ha en fin uke, klem fra meg.

  42. as i read the beginning of your post, i wondered if you have been a sewer for a long time? or if you started recently. i remember that you knit, i think? i LOVE the look of laundry hanging outside on a clothes line, and the way it smells when you bring it indoors!! your tulips are gorgeous, mine are fading!!

  45. Så langt våren er kommet hos dere! Her begynner det å bli grønt. Påskeliljene blomstrer og kirsebærtrærne. Men ellers venter vi på at alle trærne skal bli grønne. Det er en deilig tid i naturen.

  46. Liebe Viola, da habt ihr's ja NOCH "frischer" gehabt als wir. Ich hoffe, inzwischen sind auch bei euch die Temperaturen in einen angenehmeren Bereich geklettert. Die Frühlingsimpressionen aus Natur und Garten machen jedenfalls gute Laune :-) Deine Werke sind toll - so ein hübsches Tascherl, und dein Shirt schreit "SOMMER-SONNE-YEAH!"
    Alles Liebe, Traude
