I'm doing a swap in another group. I just realized one of the items required is a pattern for a spring garden item. This is a quilting group, but most of us also do sewing items, so I imagine anything would do. I'm out of ideas!

How about a pansy block? Tulip applique?

Gosh, my mind is blank. I keep thinking of springy fabrics
but no patterns :(

Fabric Galore

I always think of crocus and daffodils and of course the red breasted robin. If you have an embroidery machine there are endless patterns for spring.

i always think spring when i see the HST basket block

when you say spring "garden" item do they want something you actually would use or put out in the garden..like a sign, or an apron maybe???

How about a sunbonnet?
If it is a quilt block you need, Sunbonnet Sue.
If it is actually a garden item, make a sun hat!

or how about one of those bucket aprons...you know they go around a standard 3gal bucket to hold your tools....handy even if they don't garden!

All these ideas are great. I don't really know what the hostess of group meant; she only said a pattern for a spring graden item. That's why I asked for advice, lol. I'm thinking a bucket apron sounds like a good idea. Now, to find that pattern.....

I think this says "Spring" if you wanted a quilt pattern
