March is blowing away

Yep, the month of March appears to be blowing away at my house. The north wind is challenging the allergies and the trees are waving in the breezy air.

Yesterday a friend & I went on a small 3 shop shop hop. Yes, that sentence is correct. We decided to do what 3 of our local area quilt shops call the Bunny Shop Hop. Clever, Easter is next month. The object was to visit each of 3 shops, pick up bunny parts and then in the 3rd shop, put the bunny together. Silly us, we thought we got to keep them. Nope, the bunnies stayed at the 3rd shop we visited. However, I did remember to take pictures of our bunnies. So for your enjoyment, here they are. I was hoping they would go
side by side - but I guess I goofed when I put the in, guess I'll have to re-figure what
I'm doing. Okay. Let's see what I can do. Never mind, I guess this is as good as I'm going to get.

They stayed at the quilt shop and we of course came home with patterns and fabric purchased. I bought one pattern and two panels. My friend's bunny is the right hand one. She bought several patterns, a book, and several pieces of fabric. Both bunnies have a bright pink tail. We left them sitting in a basket with 3 other bunnies. As we left, it looked liked they would by joined by a couple more bunnies. Once our bunnies were completed we put our name and phone number on the ticket that had come in one of the parts bags and placed it in the container with the others. We're hoping to win the prize which is a basket full of quilting goodies. Don't know when the drawing is, but I'm sure we'll know the winner by the end of the week.
