But a few days ago, we woke up to 6"-8" of snow on the ground... Our weather has been very crazy...
My daffodils were probably wondering what the heck was going on when they woke up covered in snow...

There was snow everywhere... Even the crevices of our Japanese Maple...
This little house is often occupied by the cutest little bird family... If they are here this year, I hope they were kept warm and toasty in there....
Outside - one would have to look pretty hard to see any signs of spring...
But inside...... I have a dogwood branch in bloom!
Our neighbors planted the cutest little dogwood tree between our driveways. It is a favorite of mine. The weight of the snow must have broken this branch, so I decided to bring it in and see what it would do. It's been in a vase of water for about a month. I am loving watching it sprout and bloom.
I even took part of the branch over to my neighbor so she could enjoy it too. She's going to hang her Easter eggs from it..

You can see a little peak at the St. Patrick's Day banner I made a few weeks back. I saw this adorable little banner over at Simple As That
And here is the Tablerunner I made especially for St. Patty's Day!
Wonky green stars on a white background with a rainbow border.
And little shamrocks quilted in the center of each star...
It looks really cute on my buffet with my little banner and blooming dogwood....

I absolutely love this table runner. The colors are fantastic, and I love the way you made the stars. Well done!
Your table runner is beautiful! I know all about that weather. I live down in Corvallis. We woke up to 5" of snow the other day, and today it was in the high 50's. Sure is nice to see the sun! Enjoying your blog :)

Love, love, love the table runner with those gorgeous bright colors against the white. And how clever of you to force a dogwood branch. I wish I had thought of that! They are close to blooming here though a blooming branch for my Easter centerpiece with eggs hanging from it would be gorgeous. Hmmm...now to find someone willing to let me cut a branch off their tree!
Wonderful runner. Glad to be reading your blog again
Another beauty of a table runner! You should make a book for them. Either how-to or a coffee table book...I've made 3 so far and just love them.
That table runner is fabulous! I really love the wonky stars. I have been wanting to try them but have not gotten around to it yet. What am I waiting for?
I like your table runner. Very cute. It was 85 here in Austin yesterday. Our spring is fast heading to summer.
I love that table runner!
Hi Jodi...
Snow and then sunny in the same week?...it's just like living in Utah!
The dogwood blossom is so beautiful and looks perfect with your paper garland behind
It. Your table runner is darling as usual... I love your green wonky stars and rainbow borders...makes me want a bowl of
Lucky Charms:)
I absolutely LOVE that table runner!! And what pretty snow pictures. I weather goes crazy here sometimes too ;0)
My Mom always said spring wasn't here until we had snow on the daffodils, so I guess it's official where you are?? Not here though - we had our 80's and spring was rushed, and now it has cooled down again, but I don't know about snow. I do love the blooming dogwood - how sweet!!
That shamrock quilting is adorable!

Beautiful photos and I love the table runner. I tried following you on Pinterest, but none of your boards show up on your page even though it says you have 1345 pins. Have you heard of anyone else having this problem?
Crazy about your table runner! It is absolutely perfect for St. Patrick's day, but for the whole spring as well.
Love the table runner!
I love your blog, have spent hours here the past few weeks. I enjoy looking at your quilts and projects.Your quilts are so bright and cheerful and your organization just might motivate me ;)
I have chronic issues, so feel like I can relate to your previous post. (gotta love it when you find a great doctor).
