Spring is near in Mississippi. Birds and Blooms.

When I was looking through the photos on my phone for finished quilt pictures, I noticed the hundreds of snapshots I've taken since moving here to beautiful Mississippi. The last 1 1/2 years or so has been an incredible adventure. Right from day one, I've had a sense of coming home even though I had never been to the South before. And at the same time, EVERYTHING is brand new! Everything causes a sense of wonder deep in my soul...

... from the tiniest wild flowers....




..... and colorful mushrooms!!....


MUSHROOMS EVERYWHERE!!

the biggest wild mushroom i've ever seen..





....... to very large creepy crawlies I that I could see....



....and some unseen but obviously there!....







... And the glorious wildlife around our house!




....some not so happy critters!

......EVEN CRITTERS  IN THE ATTIC!










.... and breathtaking landscapes...
Lovely cotton fields along the highway..

the inspiration for "Faith of a Seed... Beauty of the South" made for a Possum Town Ultimate Quilt Guild Challenge. It was the first time I've entered a quilt competition.
