Catchup - March 13th-17th

March 13th

Hmmmm I was being nice and sharing a slice of my breakfast banana with the CREW.   I turned to garbage the peel, turned and Griff was too close to my bowl this time!  😆

March 14th

I saw this on Quilting Digest and knew it was me in the past, but not so much the past two years!  That's one good thing Covid has given me - time to stay home and delve into my stash for mask making and now planned or scrappy quilt making!  So I played with the original.

Hmmmm not sure how much sleep I actually get nights as one or all get me up once or twice through the night (whether they need to or just have my nuumber) and that's after all go before bed. Then after their 6:30am breakfast I seem to only be allowed 2 hours nap then someone wants out again! What gets me is once I'm up THEY are out cold for 2-3 hours! My younger sister growled and said ohhhh no they'd be outside for a couple hours! Guess the CREW is lucky it's me and not her!!!

Ohhhh I can't wait to receive this pattern! Thank you very much for designing this paw print!

So I finished off one child's ABC blocks quilts. It's now 36.5" X 43" and not sure if I'll add another blue mottled border or not. I've one more similar to this and maybe another with objects/animals appliqued on white to fill in missing blocks and a number of excess blocks I'll throw into my I SPY quilts! That 2.4 meters and the 1.5 of leggo blocks are going a long way, plus using some stash.

Ummmm I've decided to change the red cornerstones to the same blue as the inside blocks with blue binding!

Here I was going to say I made it through without any major issues! Yeah right!

Edna called as I was doing a quick yard scan before letting the dogs out. So they were out for a bit and glanced out again and Bernese were on the deck but Sam was chopping on something! He stepped away quickly when i called, but I think the grey rabbit was dead! Even with all of us in the house, it did not stir, so I got the shovel and scooped it up, followed the dog tracks, sunk up to my knees, listing sideways but managed to extricate myself, and dumped it over the fence onto open road easeway or whatever you call it. Now to get my heart rate down!!! 

If that was not enough, I'm packing up my quilting stuff and nicked the hallway wall!!! DANG IT TO !@#$%!!! 🥺

Shoot I forgot to post these beautiful yard decorations from our walk yesterday!

And here is Noel, my friend for the next few days!

Ohhh so true! And I had light blond long hair in ringlets too!

March 15th & 16th

I had a lovely two days out shopping and of course lunch out both days! Sylvia and Edna were very lucky shoppers, even rubber boots, I only picked up new PJs and later Terry toweling to make another hooded bath towel! But two days of lowering the mushy sidewalk in hopes of it levelling it off I'm achy and sore, but nit sinking in and tipping sideways!

March 17th

To my family, friends and all! I've my fabrics from Ireland but as yet not made my wall hanging. Better get my heels snapping!
