If you know my DH you would be just as surprised, he has only bought me flowers once in the 15 years we have been together, I come home to see these gorgeous Roses.
Love is in the air….everywhere I look around…(appologies to those that won`t be able to get this song out of their head for the rest of the day)
They are just starting to show their centers and I was fortunate that I found the vase (3 sided) they were in at a yard sale a couple of years ago, I usually have my dried hydrangeas in it but they got tossed in a flash.
I have been working on my BOAF block that is 2/3 done and also my baskets as you can see below I have them all appliqued on there is about 25 of them our of 2oo and some odd, and now I am doing the little square in the middle.
I will have to dig in my scrap barrels and get some more baskets cut and ready for travelling.
Next week I will going to Rose Marie`s house with Mary we are flying to North Bay, it is just so exciting! we are counting the moments!
Oh your lucky girl - the roses are beutiful and very nice to get - Red Roses - nice :o))

Beautiful flowers and such a nice surprise! I see your quilt block and the baskets there - lovely. I hadn't thought of doing the basket squares at once. I like that idea!
ReplyDeleteDeb, your DH sounds like mine, but he is a keeper. Love all of your projects and fabric choices.
ReplyDeleteLovely roses. I got some on Jan 28 for our 47th anniversary. My DH talked those flowers into lasting right up to, but not including Valentines Day.....giggle. They were starting to get a little stinky, but I loved them anyway.
