Getting ready for summer

With the start of the Memorial Day weekend, it feels like summer has arrived. We don't have any big plans for the long weekend. Just spending it around the house and celebrating our 5 year wedding anniversary.
I have been working on a new beaded crazy quilt, but cant show much of it right now. I did want to share a new beaded flower I created using some rhinestone circles I acquired a while back. The circles make a perfect center to the flowers with some size 15 beads used to make the petals and the finished off with some foliage created with bugle beads.

I also picked up a bunch of new patterns (Hobby Lobby had them all on sale for 1.99 each)

So I hope to do a little summer sewing for my self and the kids.
