Ducks in the pond

Download now as a pdf pattern

Duck Pond is the name of this block. Did you see the duck feet in the corners? I try to find a reason for the names these blocks are given. It is just to amuse me that I do this. I am one who is easily amused and given to laughter. I had several good laughs today. Not that I remember them LOL.

We went out today for a bit to Safeway. I just asked Ray where we went and he said Safeway. And here I thought we had gone to more than one place. Ah memory fades , again. It seems to falter way too often these days.

I began the process of doing my nails. After the shaping I put a base coat on them. If I do that and then add the nail enamel it does not last. I need to add the enamel tomorrow. That way my manicure lasts for weeks  and I do not have to redo it. I didn't do that the last time I did my nails and it was a bad manicure.

I spent a bit of time this afternoon with my little heart blocks putting them together into rows. I didn't do all the rows because I sat down and forgot about them. Bad memory again.

This is Vancouver, isn't it lovely. My grandson Rick sent it into Facebook. I love this city and have forever. I came here in 1938 . Nothing has made me think otherwise of my city.


This is a delightful picture, the flowers are so pretty and of course we all love the old Singers.  This one is a Singer Featherweight , a much-loved sewing machine. And it is sitting on an old Singer treadle machine.

Another colour way for this quilt.

Time to go folks. Have a lovely evening.

Good night.
