Block of the day

Download now as a pdf pattern

North Star is the name of this block of the day. 



A lovely tree pattern for you to make. And it is Spring, the red  bits can't be apples in the Spring so they must be blossoms.

All we did today was go to the grocery store for our weekly shopping.  We did not go for coffee or lunch after the shopping , just came straight home. Why ? I have no idea .  
All I did was read a bit and work on my laptop. I was so lazy and that irritates me. I need a kick in the pants LOL. But I'll take my pants off first. Haha.

Adam said Lake Charles was under a tornado watch. No tornado though so that was good. 

We did not have rain today and it was nice to be able to walk outside and not get wet. Yesterday was quite wet and the seat of my walker got very wet and I hated to sit down on it. So I didn't.
Most of the time i can only stand or walk so far and then I need to sit for a few minutes to rest myself.


I am pretty sure Adam took me to this museum when I was in Delaware .  It was a good museum and had a lot of excellent art work many by the masters.  This one Spring Rain was painted by John French Sloan. It has the feel of a Renoir, perhaps it is the times that make it look that way, 1912.
Renoir was born in 1841 and died in 1919 so he had quite an influence on the world of Art. 

this is what i call a one piece wonder because it is made of repetitions of the same block. Personally although I admire the work I find this kind of boring.

This quilt was made by Ray's niece and is her first quilt. Amazing piece of work for a beginner. Congratulations Pam. I love this quilt.

Or Saturday night  ......

And that is that folks.

Have  a great evening.

Good night.
