April is over already?

I can't believe that it is already the end of April. My hyacinths are all in bloom as well as some more daffodils.

 Unfortunately the stalks of my hydrangea are hiding the daffodils. I never got around to trimming them in the fall. Looking at the picture, I have to straighten that brick border as well.

My university class is almost over. There are a few more lectures and then the final. I still have to write the final exam and all my work for this class will be complete mid-May. Of course I will have to grade the final, but that is easier than preparing and giving lectures. Once  the semester is finished I will have two more days per week that I get home by 3 p.m. I am so looking forward to having afternoons that I can spend crafting as my day job doesn't require any prep work. I just have to show up and help students all day.

I managed to add piece #13 (the one on top) to my Advent Calendar. This one went more smoothly than the last. 

I also finished the first round of border on my Granny Rose Afghan. I am going to add at least one more round, maybe two or three, of the white background. 

I was contemplating adding some rounds with the colors of the flowers, but I ran out of some of them and I really like how it looks with just the white.

You can see from this corner that I have just added a single granny row around the outside edge.

I am joining Kathy for some Slow Sunday Stitching. Pop on over to her site to see what other bloggers are stitching. I hope to add another piece to my Advent Calendar today.

Thanks for stopping by!
