Cranial Hiccups

Every once in a while and totally unintentionally my brain spews out a good idea.

Spring Has Sprung

April 9, 2012 by Montserrat {Cranial Hiccups} 10 Comments

and my busy season has begun!

April is going to be a doozey of a month for me. I have several major projects I am working on.

{I didn’t make this quilt but will be making one like it}

A quilt is being made as a special gift for someone who is moving. I’m following the easy tutorial for the Patchwork Chevron quilt pictured above.

I’m also putting together a video/slide show for a stake Relief Society fireside the first Sunday in May.

Seeds have been started indoors and the garden boxes are getting their first plantings of lettuce, spinach, carrots, and peas. I have a goal to have a very bountiful harvest from the garden this year! Last year’s wasn’t but I had a good excuse as Ganache was born the middle of July.

My blogging will be sporadic at best. I still have plans in the works for an apron walk through history complete with tutorials. And there are still some homeschooling questions that were asked in my Q&A post that need to be answered. There are also several posts that I didn’t finish relating to the Relief Society 170th Anniversary Celebration. There are no guarantees to when those will be posted. Wordfull Wednesday will be put on hold for the month.

Whew!

You can still get a glimpse of what we are doing as I post my “daily gifts” on my photography blog.

    I haven’t seen pictures of your oldest ones as babies, but let me just say that sweet little boy is model worthy. I always feel bad complementing one when the rest are just as beautiful because I don’t want anyone to feel unloved! I am always quick to point out my older kids wonderful traits (physical or other) when people stop and fawn over Irish Jig’s blond curls. I just think we naturally gravitate toward giving attention to all the littlest people.

    I love reading someone else’s craziness. And you are so incredibly generous here at your blog, I can only imagine the generosity shared in your “real” life.

    That quilt is gorgeous…definately not fit for a ballpark. 🙂
    I’ll miss WW but probably would have been too distracted to join in right now also. Here’s to May? 🙂
