Jo's Easter Treasure Hunt

 Good Morning...Today is Good Friday and it means Jo is hosting the annual Easter Treasure Hunt. Our goal is to post a picture of Easter or Spring related...

First I will apologize as I cannot remember where I got this freebie. I will really try to locate the info and update later. I have always enjoyed needle in hand embroidery. This lovely gal is spreading Spring blooms around my kitchen. I change out the dish towel with each season/holiday. 
Please be sure to collect your letters from the other participants to solve the mystery phrase. My letter to give is ~~~ L. 
Next on the list to visit is with Mary at..

On Tuesday I received my 2nd Covid vaccine. Of course I would be one of those who had a reaction....not with the first one. I spent Wednesday in bed feeling like a train hit me and slowly felt better yesterday and so far this morning, although I woke a 3A:30am because of the thunder,  I seem to be feeling better. So, this post is short....Have a wonderful holiday weekend.
Edit...the embroidery is from, https://jacquelynnesteves.com/, one of my favorite blogs!

Meet Angela~~~~

 A beautiful day in the neighborhood.... it is Arizona so everyday is just about perfect. May reach 80s today then they say may a day of 90?! Alan and I added a new "plant" to the garden

Fits perfectly in the corner. Bright raspberry color really adds to the area. A hummer actually checked it out. We really like these metal sculpture plants. Soon Alan will be on the look out for some annuals to pot up which will bring more color to the garden.
Here is Angela. She is a Tilda doll from the Toy Box Book...love the Tila collections. Said to Lisa, now for a name...she responded Angela so it is so.
The pattern calls for a headband...not fond of it, but I made it anyway. Tone, who is Tilda  creations, wear her hair with side buns, so off course her dolls have them also. Instead of a stuffed piece, I tore stirpes of cotton and stitched them in place to form buns. Just love making dolls and critters. Speaking of critters, just was speaking with sis Lyn and she love Honey Bear...so he will be moving to Rhode Island very soon. 
Happy you took time to visit. Thank you for your kind words and for your friendship.
