Down the Rabbit Hole

Remember in the story of Alice in Wonderland and
how she decided to follow the White Rabbit
 down the rabbit hole.


Look who I caught
 peeking down the rabbit hole.

For the past couple of weeks,
I've been feeling just like the
impulsive Alice.
I've been
 following my quilting desires,
leaving my regular projects and WIP's behind and
feeling more spontaneous.

Last week I had fun following
 this little Wool Rabbit.


I enjoyed taking my time working
on
"Dandelion Wishes"
designed by Nutmeg Hare

 There's something relaxing and soothing about
working with wool.

I followed my own path and
didn't use black wool for the background,
instead I used a blue flannel
and a linen and cotton blend for the embroidery.
It seemed a bit more spring like.

I guess we all remember picking dandelions and 
blowing the feathery seed head while making 
a wish.
Wouldn't it be nice if 
life could always be that simple?


Granted, this wasn't the white rabbit with a 
pocket watch telling me he was late, too late,
for a very important date.

But instead a little brown bunny who seemed to be
unaware of the fact he was
blowing dandelion seeds all over the yard.
 Running Man found this quite inexcusable.
Sorry little brown rabbit.
Life is not as simple as it use to be!

Until Next Time
