Here is the Doodah spruced up for Spring with what has to be the easiest project ever: cut a 22" x 11" rectangle with pinking shears, fold in half to create an 11" x 11" square and cut diagonally from the top of the folded edge to the opposite corner of the square. Unfold the large triangle and tie around the neck of a favourite dog.
One of my favourite hymns reads "Let us sing of Easter gladness that rejoices every day... " I like to think that the joy of rebirth, newness and renewal can be in our hearts at any time throughout the year. Though there is no doubt that this holiday has its very special traditions... egg colouring is always a happy time for our family and friends - this year we added masking tape (cut up as a resist to create lettering and designs) to the staple crayons and dyes.
Just loved this little hand reaching for treasure - it is often so quietly hidden in places we least expect in life. A good reminder for me.
Yes, a great reminder for everyone, Kate. Hidden treasures are right in front of us each day; oh, if only we all stopped and looked more often. Happy Easter! Happy Spring! Talk soon, Vic

Love the little kerchief for the dog. I made something very similar for my drooling little babe with your sunshine print! He gets a lot of compliments when he wears it out.
