Since we go to my in-laws for Easter dinner, my parents came up to celebrate Easter early with us this year. Hubster and I have a week off from school, Pumpkin however only has two days (and baseball practice everyday but Sunday!!!). The only day that worked for our Easter was Friday night! Wanting to spend more time with my family, we kept the meal simple.

Hubster & I always spend Easter with his family. However, with recent events, we’ve spent a lot of time there. So we went the opposite way and decided to surprise my parents with a visit. Spring is one of my favorite times of year and one of the things I miss from my childhood home is the apple tress in bloom…

Pattern 2 test run… Three small flowers minus the buttons, my Easter flowers. Hubster recently revealed how much he likes purple on me… It’s not my favorite color, but it is one of my favorite to wear. 10 years ago I owned one purple sweater, 6 years ago I bought purple glasses and since then have incorporated more into my wardrobe. I have a few students who told me they like when I wear purple, because I look like Daphne from Scooby Doo… I think that’s a compliment.

Flirty? Felt? Flower? Must be time for spring…
I’m working on a gift for a friend who liked my flirty fleece ear warmers (get tutorial here). I wanted to update the style for spring and summer wear. I did a test run for myself, before creating one for her… I’m still playing with the balance of it. I like the five layers I used on the flowers for the ear warmers, but the band was larger. With a simple headband elastic, fewer layers seem more balanced… or may that’s just me playing it safe. Maybe I’ll add another layer next time. These shades of blue and green are some of my favorite colors to wear (maybe because they brighten my reddish hair and make my green eyes pop).

These would make great party favors or would be great peeking out of an Easter basket.

Happy Easter Everyone!!

No matter when Easter falls, my hyacinths are in full bloom. It’s been a gorgeous weekend here, temperatures into the 80’s (and to think it was sleeting a few days ago).

My tête-à-tête daffodils are blooming, just a few inches taller than the early blooms. My minnow daffodils are beginning to awaken to a new world.
