FFF and BOM files updated!

It’s taken me most of last evening and another two hours this morning to complete the transfer of all the FFF files as well as my Raggedy & Friends BOM to Google Docs…and it wasn’t easy.  My computer skills are not the best and it was a ‘learn-as-you-go’ experience for me. 

How the February 2010 FFF post appeared this morning is a mystery to me but has now been deleted and I believe that everything is now fixed, moved, readily accessible and tickety-poo!

Once again, thanks to all of you who suggested that I use Google Docs.  It is much easier to use and appears to be very user friendly.

For those of you who might be new here, I offered a free BOM of my Raggedy & Friends quilt back in 2010.

If you would like to make this quilt, the PDF files are available for you to download by clicking on the links on the right sidebar of my blog…and they’re FREE!  They are listed under Links to Raggedy & Friends BOM Patterns”.

This morning I went for a tour around the gardens…care to join me?

Tulips…is there any other flower that represents spring better?

An early blooming azalea…a real splash of color in a spring garden.

This sign says it all…’welcome’ to our home.

I love situating plants with different colors and textures next to one another.

“Supertunias”…a new variety this year…and they require no dead-heading!

Bleeding hearts…another of my favorites.

Our three apple trees are in full blossom.  Ah spring!

I hope you all have a great day.  If you’re looking for me, I’ll be out playing in the dirt!

  13. Thank you for the wonderful garden tour. We are starting to cool down now 'downunder'but because I live in Queensland near the coast,we really only get Summer(wet season) & Winter(dry season). So I enjoyed seeing all your spring flowers.

  19. You did really well moving your files. I know how much time that takes...and takes you away from playing with fabric...... Your garden looks lovely. Good to see a wee fabric plant in there :-)

  26. Just a FYI I can get to all the FFF's except 'Wool Crazy Christmas' & 'Colonial Christmas Sampler'. It says I don't have permission to access. Just thought you would like to know.
