After Easter quiet time

There is no better time to be alive than experiencing Easter and Spring in the same week.  With the beautiful weather the flowering trees and bushes make everything beautiful.  I have a loropetalum bush in front of my sewing room window and it looks like a pink angora sweater on steroids.  The big five (azalea, camellia, gardenia, crape myrtle, and dogwood) have three of them blooming in the bed in the front yard and I even have a few marshmallow blooms on my japanese cherry tree.  The weather has just cooperated so well.
Yesterday worked on trimming half-square triangles for "Cotton Candy" quilt by Bonnie Hunter.  I have a few more string blocks to do then can begin putting the block together. Oh boy pinks, purples, and creams.  Pretty pretty.

The first picture is of the tulips in the new garth at church.  They were splendid. The next is the dogwood in front of the church.  The last is the tulip tree in my neighbor's yard.
All glorious.
Flowering quilting.
