I have been busy at my machine preparing for my participation in the Sweet on Spring celebration at the gardens of my friend, Suzanne St. Pierre. This event promises to bring to life the energy we all feel as the world reawakens with intensity to the color and life of spring. As I sit in my studio with the sun pouring through the windows and birdsong surrounding me again, I can't think of a better way to acknowledge spring fever than to simply embrace it with a celebration!
Over half of my new pillows for this event are made from vintage fabrics and all of them are meant to bring color and brightness into play during this time of year when winter looks so weary. Hopefully you will agree that these pillows put you in mind of the great out-of-doors --and that there are some that just make you smile.

I ADORE the dots.
As soon as I saw the butterfly, I thought...hmmm that looks like Vera...sure enough.
Polka dots always make me smile!
I see you've found Cicada Studio's link. She's one of my favorite designers (and bloggers).
Best of luck with all of your show preparations.
Hello Suzanne and Carla! I LOVE the pillows... and ALL of your plans for "Sweet on Spring"! What amazing ideas you have! Have so much fun! I sure wish I was able to be there!

Carla,
So fun to meet you in person! Can't wait to see you in July!
Can you believe I forgot to take pictures of your area in the conservatory once you had set up?!?
Too much talking and oggling!
Hi Carla,
It was so good to meet you today at LITG, and to see some of the gifts of your talented eye! (And ohhh, that poppy fabric! :o)

Hi Carla,
I'm in Portland and can receive, but not send emails for some reason.
Loved seeing the pictures from the sale!
Talked to Heidi last night. There's a family wedding at the end of July in Spokane. I suggested we skip the wedding and descend at your place.........
Hi Susan,
I just went to Spacify--very fun! Thanks for visiting my site.
Carla
