Spring Flowers While Waiting On Summer

 Thought I'd share some spring flower pictures that I took this year.  While waiting for summer to arrive.  I honestly am not missing it too much.  This is a surprise iris, my mom gave me the bulbs last year and I planted them in a new place and poof, there it was a beautiful and surprising iris!
 I didn't grow these tiger lilies, they were from a bouquet my husband gave me.  I like them a lot, and think I should plant some for next year.

 A close up of a pretty small flower, which I can't remember the name of at the moment.

 Looks even better with a few raindrops.

 The infamous climbing rose that takes over the deck every year.  This was taken right before the local deer went on a rampage and pruned them for me. Someone forgot to close the gate, whoops!

Ranunculus? I can't remember the name, but Rexie looks good with it doesn't he?

My quilt "I Guess I Like Pink After All" egg-er-cized @ dumpr.
Go make one and let me know, I'd love to see it!

Happy Easter if you're celebrating today, and if not, Happy Nice Spring Sunday!

This is an interesting exercise to see how a flat 2-d design looks when put onto a 3-d shape. I would have definitely made some different design choices if I'd been making it in 3-d originally. Can you imagine how hard it would be to do this on a real-life egg! What process would you use? Painting, silk screening, dyeing, image transfer? hmmmm.
