March Redwork Birdie Stitches and the Last Hurrah of Winter

March Redwork Birdie Stitches Pattern Information
 
March arrives, the last hurrah of winter and the first whisper of spring. 
  Sarah Ban Breathnach
 
March
A blue day,
a blue jay
and a good beginning. 
 
One crow,
melting snow –
spring’s winning.
     Elizabeth Coatsworth
 
 
It is the first mild day of March,
Each minute sweeter than before . . .
There is a blessing in the air . . .
 
William Wordsworth

  3. I just have to take one day at a time. Nice today, rainy tomorrow, snow the next. It will end eventually and then in another month or two we'll be complaining about how hot it is. LOL. Love your redwork. It reminded me of a little rainbow over the bird. :)

  5. I love watching and waiting as each tree and bush and bulb celebrates the season ... the opening of that bud that was only a promise a few days before.

  6. Within this month you have several seasons Winter fads as Spring trys to come in. Then you can quickly get Winter back. But by the evening you get a sudden rain storm that melts all that snow that gently covered the grass earlier that morning. March just keeps you guessing.
