Easter Squares
I got the most lovely Easter Squares from Gillie, but I am a lame brain who still has the pictures on her camera not in her computer. I promise I'll be back with the pics tomorrow.
Thanks Gilllie!

Squares Sent and Received
I want to thank Sharon for the lovely squares I received in the mail earlier this week. She was kind enough to stitch these for me when my original partner failed to do so. Here are the squares she sent me.
Here are the squares I sent to my partner.

Squares from Melissa
Here is what I did with the beautiful bunny squares from Melissa for Easter. The bunny has a silk chenille tail and I wanted to protect it. I thought this was a great way to do so. I hope Melissa likes what I did with the squares.

My lovely Squares for Round 11
Easter Squares from Laura W
Please see these exquisite squares from Laura W. ! My photos don't do them justice. I'm just blown away by the skill that went into these, incorporating smyrna stitches (I think) and more. They are an inspiration to encourage me to learn more stitches. I'm truly grateful for these lovely pieces, which are "Button Basket" by Ewe & Eye & Friends, and Laura's adaptation of a Tokens and Trifles design. Thanks, Laura and Happy Easter to you!

Easter has arrived!
In yesterday's mail were my squares from Kathy.
Kathy they are perfect! I adore my little "bun buns"! And I saw just the other night at Marshall's a little square opening frame that I think will be perfect for these guys. I can't wait to have them displayed with all my other bunnies. (I'll probably leave them out year round in my powder room - it has a rabbit theme.)
Thank you again!

Round #11 Squares from Nicky R.
What a nice surprise it was to get home from work last night and find my squares in the mail box! Nicky R. was my partner, and she stitched the "reading" block from the LHN Little Women series for me. It looks beautiful and I love the fact that it features books as a subject! I love to read as much as I love to stitch! Here is a picture:
I enjoyed this, my first Fair and Square round, and am looking forward to participating in others!
Thank you Nicky :)

Easter squares received!
these very pretty squares were done by Sharon V. It is hard to tell in my picture but there are beads on these as well. She also sent along some sweet little hand made items and an original design for a scissor fob she has made which is very nice!
Thank you Sharon.
