Yesterday I did get caught up in the Midnight Moon sew-along. I knew I had weeks 10 and 11 to do, but discovered I had somehow skipped week 7, All good now, all done. That star block in the middle of the upper row? I did that three times. I just could not get the colors right. The block on the far right in the upper row is called Darting Birds. I made that one three times too. I kind of hate it. It is a weird block: easy as sin, but and it was hard to get the colors/contrasts right. I may have to sacrifice that one and come up with a new block.
The Rollin' Along sew along is about to start. I got my Cozy Up fabrics all starched and I am ready to go with the center Great Granny block.
Our weather is warming up, but I am looking forward to it. I love sitting out on my porch reading my book and getting some fresh air. There is a limit though. If it is over 100 degrees, I do not last long! Early morning is the best time to sit out.
Best of all is the time I have been finding to get some sewing done!
Ozzie had a birthday yesterday. 15 years old, can you believe it? He definitely has mellowed in his old age. He's still annoying, but not nearly the scamp he used to be. Here he is, about 13 years ago with a ball of yarn I had been saving for something nice.
Happy Birthday Ozzie!!! As cute as ever! I can’t believe your sew alongs Nicole! Good job!

I have always loved Ozzie & his mischief! Happy birthday to the 'King of Scamps!' 🐶🎂 Your blocks look great, but I don't know about the Darting Birds one...just doesn't speak to me, I guess.
