Good morning all my friends in blogland! I don't have a specific shop to feature today as I am getting caught up on all my blog reading for this week so I want to share a couple of things from my life this week and also feature a couple of blogs that I LOVE to read! I have been in a quilting mood lately and want to share the quilt top that I finished from my quilt class. It's pictured below, I still have to pick a backing fabric and think I will attempt to quilt it myself later this spring/summer after I have practiced a bit on the sample blocks we were given in class.
This week both the boys had their Easter parties and boy were they fun, Thursday was JJ's party and though the Easter Bunny didn't hide eggs, he was nice enough to make getting candy easy for all the preschoolers. He simply left a "field" of candy for them to run around and pick up. JJ loved it! as you can see.
He filled his bag so full that he broke the handle under the weight....lol
Now for Connor's kindergarten class the Easter Bunny thought the eggs were appropriate, so they got a "field" of eggs to grab up. Imagine 100 kids and one mass chaos egg hunt!!! Plus every child had their bunny ear crowns on....100 flopping ears running around...it was soooo cute. Take a look....
It was fun being able to be at and participate in both parties, thanks to a great friend here in town who volunteered to watch JJ on Friday so I could got to Connor's party! Cause sometimes it's better when Mommy can show up without little brother being drug along...:)
Now for a couple of blogs that I love to keep up with, though I may not always have time to post comments on them, I am reading them on a semi daily basis! The first one I enjoy reading is
This is such a fun and creative blog to read, with the quilt tops he makes and the creativeness of both he and his family! It's always an inspiration whenever he reveals his newest creation. And I want to throw out a congratulations on the newest addition to his family. ( they just had a gorgeous baby boy recently!)
Next on my list is
Brig has such a wonderfully well written blog and some her daily life stories will make anyone smile! I met Brig on etsy and not only does she have a wonderful blog, but a fantastic etsy shop as well. Feel free to check both out, her etsy shop is BrigaBauble
Lastly for today is
Now this blog is new, but it was created by my Mom! After being told not only by myself but by a lot of her own friends that she needed to start creating her own patterns and sell the creations she makes, she created this selling blog. Again it's in it's first stages, but go over, take a look, sign up to follow so you can be one of the first to know when she has new items and patterns available! I promise you won't be disappointed.
Now don't forget to sign up for my giveaway and take a look at my shops. www.primitivejunkie.etsy.com and www.primitivejunkie.artfire.com.
It's time to get around and ready to go to the store for groceries and supplies, I wish you all a very happy, sunny and creative day!

Awww, thanks for the shoutout PJ! I just updated my blog but it's all jacked up looking because I got tired of fighting blogspot over the font. LOL. Your kids are just too cute! Love the "egg" hunt pics and, of course, your quilt top is beautiful. :)
Thanks for highlighting me on your blog Miranda! Love the colors you used on your quilt top. Hope you had fun taking that class.
Connor and JJ look like they were also having lots of fun! I think I heard mention of an easter egg hunt on Sunday morning at our village square. I might try taking Rowan over.
I'm going to visit your other blog recommendations and take a look around!
