eeyore

My eeyore tree is sporting a coat of new growth


My contorted filbert survived the winter. It was given to me by my son with the pink flamingo since we are officially old. cheeky kid
It has been raining for 3 days. And in that amount of time, the grass has grown a foot.

May's One monthly goal and UFO 2017 will be to finish a Bonnie Hunter design - Wild and Goosey. I have completed 192 units of wild and goosey blocks, enough to make 48 blocks. They are all de-papered  and trimmed. I want to set them with an alternate cross block. I have hunted for a pattern, but I haven't found one to finish at the right size. So I am going to try sewing a prototype.

I think I will start with Bonnie Hunter's cross block and just increase the size of the rectangles. I saw this quilt somewhere and loved it. I am shooting for this look.

    The block looks terrific. I like your fabric choices. The Eeyore tree is lovely too with it's soft little nubs at the end of each branch.

    That's going to be a fun quilt. Wild and Goosey is my to do list once I get the UFO list whittled down a bit.
