Luckily for me, the postman had delivered this month's Solids Club shipment, and it was just the perfect thing to lift my spirits and put a smile on my face.
Green. Glorious, happy, vibrant, symbol-of-renewal-and-rebirth green. I was, to put it mildly, pleased as punch.
I've already earmarked one of the pieces (I got half-yards of each) for my next project: a cute apron for Émilie, as she's starting a cooking class next week at school. It's my first "real" sewing pattern, with those weird paper-thin cutouts that pissed me off to no end in my home economics class way back when, but I'm totally looking forward to it. That green, those flowers.... rain? Bring it on.
p.s. : I'm about 5 inches down the leg of the second brown sock. Ooooh. Aaaaaah.

Ooooh nice greens!! You'll have fun with those!!
Gorgeous shades, they'd suit Émilie really well. I love aprons. I have great memories of my aunt who used to sew one for my mother for christmas every year. She has a pile of them in the hot press. I wish I could make one too.
LOVE the greens!
I can't wait to see the apron done! She's going to love it. That is so awesome she's doing a cooking class at school. Is she back full time at school already?
The greens look so cheery...can't wait to see the apron!
What lovely, cheery colors!! Sounds like you are having "Ohio Weather" up there. Ugh... Praying for a lovely April...
