Brenda: "Spring is a much anticipated season here in cold NW Iowa. The first sighting of the robin is a sure indicator that Spring is coming! The pattern The Robins Are Here! is my nod to these little messengers of Spring. I remember the excitement of spotting the first robins when we were young children, running into the house to tell our mother, "the robins are here!". This piece brought back memories and a smile as I watched those little robin characters come to life on my linen.
