photos!

The sewing machine has been whirring lately.  I'm trying to  clear out the scrap pile, so I started with the red end.  I know the stripes on this one are all cattywampus.  They make me smile.

Red is so hard to photograph.  There are dozens more shades than show up here.  There was a decidedly zen-like pleasure to making this one.

Took a walk yesterday and got some spring colors to share with you.  How's it looking in your end of the world?

Blue skies and sunshine bring out the smiles and the gardeners around here.  The air was sweet with that scent of new-mown hay, and the song of the lawnmower was heard in the land.

Japanese quince at their most lovely.

Daffodils of various varieties, and windflowers.  I love that merry yellow!!

Here's a well-served cat.  The glass storm door is closed, protecting him from the March winds, but the wooden front door is open to let in the sun, and then someone dragged a chair over for him to lie there basking and watching the neighborhood in comfort.

I am very absent-mindedly involved in a monthly photo meme.  In February, we were supposed to take photos of stairs.  I stood at the top of thees and got a long-legged shadow.

These are from Autumn in the Japanese Garden.

March is supposed to be windows, I think.  I may have an idea . . .
