Easter bunnies and birdies ........

Isn't this wee guy the cutest?  I was lucky enough to be a winner in Carol's Spring Giveaway a couple of weeks ago, and this Just Nan bunny has come all the way from Pennsylvania to live at my house.  Carol's finishing is beautiful and she has a whole lot more gorgeous bunnies she's been stitching up for Easter.  I feel SO lucky to be a winner in your lovely giveaway Carol, this is the first giveaway I've ever won, so thanks!  I don't enter many giveaways, unless it's a blog I already visit, so I feel very blessed.    It may not be spring here in NZ, but it is definitely bunny time with Easter only a day away!

My stitching from last weeks FNSI is now finished.  This is the April block for the Birdie Stitches BOM, with a cute Easter egg tree.  The tree is a little hard to pick out, maybe I should have chosen a darker green.  Sadly the cross stitch I had planned for Easter has not eventuated ...... yet!





I hope you all have a wonderful Easter, we are heading away tomorrow for a few days to my in-laws, so I'll catch up again next week.

Till then.............happy stitching...................Nicky

PS:  Miss Moe - if you could email me    nickyw76 at yahoo dot com    as you are no-reply, and I will get back to you about the SB stockings.  Thanks.

So glad you won the bunny!! It is just precious!! So let me think... if we're heading into spring, does that mean you're heading into fall? It's hard to wrap my mind around!

Your quilt blocks are wonderful. I can't wait to see the completed quilt!

Lucky you to win one of Carol's treasures!

This month's birdie is super-cute. I always find that picking colors to show the contrast is the hardest thing.

Have a wonderful Easter!

I'm so happy that my little bunny arrived safely, Nicky! I'll bet he is enjoying his time amongst all the sheep and that beautiful New Zealand landscape...

Your bird block is so sweet--I love these whimsical creations of yours :)

Happy Easter to you and your family!
