Garden Logs

I had a couple of blocks left over from the background of the egret challenge and needed some log cabin blocks for my guild challenge.

So I made a couple more blocks and stitched them together.

Then I cut them down to size so that I could use them for my Art Quilts Around the World challenge.

Happy St. Pat's Day

I took some pictures last Sunday during the St.Patrick's Day parade around the square in Madison, Wisconsin.When my teenaged son saw this -- he immediately wanted one for himself.

 Of course -- I had to take a picture of this pug.

 The kids really liked this guy.

This little boy was standing in front of us for most of the parade and I loved his hat.

 This is "Sadie" -- she is an Irish water spaniel.  

These little girls are part of one of the local Irish dancing groups.

Then today I saw this in my backyard.   Look in the lower right corner of the photo.

And then it flew over to the fake fruit tree.

And best of all was the reading on the thermometer.  Whoo hoo!!
