Today we had rain and hail, plus thunder and lightning. March is going out like a Lion.
Here is this week's big accomplishment...the top for my grandson's quilt is done!!! It's huge, and now will begin the task of quilting it. Once I choose the backing, the plan is to use outlines of family hand prints for the quilting patterns.
Gilly says she thinks it would be nice to have some quilted paw prints too and in fact she's decided just about where they ought to go...
Oh that moss looks good enough to eat, Suzanna. Your quilt top is wonderful -- love the piano key border! -- I see he's a piano-playing soccer player? :) xoxo
ReplyDeleteHi Peggy, I'm so curious about the moss and have heard that once it's established it doesn't require much water at all...so far so good! You're 100% correct about the quilt recipient! It's hard to tell from these photos, but there are baseballs appliqued on also...
DeleteHi Suzanna, thanks for dropped by my blog. I couldn't replied to your comment, but it's good for me to come over and visit. Love your grandson quilt - Hugs Nat
ReplyDeleteNat, thank you! Quilting it is going to be a big adventure!
Deletei used to have a moss garden. i need to revisit that. but then again, the cat might like it too much.
ReplyDeleteGrowing moss is new to me...so far it hasn't gotten "established", so I will just keep on spraying it lots every day and try to be patient. I can imagine Soul-o taking a cat nap in a nice bed of moss.
DeleteI love moss. I have some in the garden I want to relocate. Might be a good project for this weekend...You've inspired me!
ReplyDeleteYou have to keep me posted! I am trying to get this started inside...maybe it would be happier outside...so far it is still alive but not flourishing. I collected it on walks around town because it's rather pricey in the nursery.
