My turn to shake...Pom Pom Blog Hop

I  hear Barbara Streisand singing...

Memories light the corner of my mind
Misty water color memories
Of the way we were...

Yes, the way we were.  What happened to those days?????  You blink, and your a victim of the horrible joke that life plays on us all!   LOL!!

One day we are sporting the baby oil and taking in the rays...

 
 
Then next, things have moved downward (they tell me it's gravity or some fool thing) and a bottle of SPF 50, so you don't sunburn. Ohhhhhhh, it's a lovely sight isn't it?     :-)


I just couldn't help myself, but use Amy Bradley's "All about me" one more time for this hop. My evil quiltin sista, came up with the idea of a pom pom bikini, although now she completely denies it!! Hummm...   have I finally managed to horrify her too?  LOL!!



 
                My reversible pillow tells it all. The sad story of my life!!
                   From the golden tan era to the cottage cheese thighs!  

 
It just wouldn't be the same without pom poms!
LOL!
Do you suppose this is what Clover had in mind,
 when they made the pom pom maker? 
 
 
While I was on a pom pom kick, I decided to play with a little something else.
 
 

I love pin cushions...so the wheels started turning. I started with a wooden craft box from any hobby store. While I was working on the zillion pom poms it took to cover it, the memory of those tissue paper flowers,  started dancing in my head.  Those of us who grew up in the 60's and 70's remember em. They were great big ones on sticks.  Hummm... the pom pom would make a fabulous center to a flower, now wouldn't it.

My really big pin cushion, has it's very own big pom pom flower. Since it's about 8" square and 18" tall, I shouldn't manage to loose it in my sewing room. Won't that be a nice change, for once.
                                                       :-)

 Let's have a give a way that reminds me of the spring, that hasn't managed to happen here yet!

Now this fun quilt, sure make me think of spring. If only Mother Nature would cooperate!
 
Leave me a comment and tell me if spring has sprung where you live.  On Monday April 30, the last day of our hop, I will pick a winner!
