While pruning back my jasmine, I found the sweetest little bird's nest. Do you spot the selvage? Humans aren't the only ones who cozy our nests with pretty bits of fabric. I think this one is Jennifer Paginelli Sis Boom fabric just in case you're wondering...
I have been a little absent here. There are a few things going on. One is spring fever (hence the pruning!). I've been sewing some but unfortunately I can't show the fruits of my labor just yet...you know those secret projects peopleannoyingly talk about. I will tell you that after my post yearning to make harder quilts I was promptly commissioned with a quilt with 1300 triangles. Yup...me and my big fat mouth. It was fun, though, and only a few hairs turned gray in the process. Pics to come after Quilt Market *wink*.
The not so secret project is still this guy...
He is not as much work as I feared a puppy would be. That's not to say he isn't a handful. He is 100% Scottish Terrier. Short Dog Syndrome. He is keeping us on our toes! He already knows Sit, Down, Play Dead, Shake, Drop It, Come, & High Five. He really thinks he is hot stuff. I have no idea where he got that impression, do you??

I put some fabric scraps out, after I trued-up a set of blocks. I'm not sure any birds have indulged, I hope they do. Your little guy is so cute. We have a Cairn terrier we rescued 10 years ago. He's great.
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't worry about the dog, Scottish men have the same problem...
ReplyDeleteAs for the nest, fab idea! I wonder if I should save my scraps for my gran's garden.
