Rocky Raccoon Caught in a Square Box

…..thanks to Becky B for hosting March Square

This little fella or gal was sitting in our deck box yesterday. Our dog was sniffing around the box when we let her outside and she was quite agitated. When my husband opened the box this is what he saw. He quickly called me outside and prompted me to open the box while he took a photo. I was a little nervous but the dog scared this critter more than we did. I’m going to say that ‘Rocky’ is a girl because when she climbed out she struggled quite a bit because of her massive size. I suspect that she’s pregnant. No animals were harmed in this exercise and Rocky has not returned.

March Square – Celebrating Canada’s 150th

,,,,,thanks to Becky B for hosting March Square

Some of the quilts at Friday’s quilting show at Neilson Park Creative Centre clearly had been made to celebrate Canada’s 150th birthday. This was the centre of a larger quilt and I’m wishing I had taken a photo of the entire piece.

Square Within a Square

….thanks to Becky B for hosting March Square

Yesterday I went to a Quilting show at the Neilson Park Creative Centre. I could easily finish off this challenge with nothing but quilting squares but I’ll try to be more creative than that.

Happy Nowruz – Persian New Year

My daughter-in-law’s family celebrated Nowruz yesterday in Iran. I wanted to post the Iranian quilt square on this special day but I’m a day late. To those who celebrate I apologize. Thanks to Becky B for hosting March Square.

March Square – March 19, 2018

…thanks to Becky B for hosting March Square

I’m a day late with this one. Time just ran out yesterday with a long doctor’s appointment in the afternoon and a visit with our daughter that started with coffee and pastries at our local Italian bakery and then went into dinner at our place.  After supper I drove my daughter to the subway station and then I continued on to a book club in the evening.
