Happy May Day (almost)!

I made this May Day basket for my Mom tonight.  I used the tutorial from Sandi at A Legacy of Stitches.
 Thank you Sandi.


 haven't made a May Basket in years, but I thought my Mom could use one to cheer her up.  She's alone after 68 years of marriage.
I have some white tulips and a few special candies to include.
I will hang it on her door knob in the morning.

Yesterday I forgot to say that I had a little visitor this week.  Jordyn (my great-niece) came to spend the day on Monday and we had a lot of fun.

She's growing up too fast.

And Audrey is three weeks old already.
Here she is with Grandpa.

Mary, The May basket is lovely! I'll bet your mom will really enjoy it. What a sweet gift you made for her. :-) My parents were married just two months short of their 59th wedding anniversary in 2008.
