Windmill

This morning when I got up it was dark again (yeah time change), and when I let the dog out I had a wonderful surprise.  The trees were full of song birds that were singing.  Now I love winter, and I've felt a little (lot) deprived of snow this year, but to hear the song birds back again made my whole week.  We live in an older neighborhood with a lot of big old trees and it is just music to my ears to hear them back and singing again!


Today's block is a 10-inch block and is a bunch of those flying geese.  If I remember correctly, I think I was complaining about making them a couple of weeks ago.  They weren't so bad today, actually I think I enjoyed them?!  Here is another prime example of turning some flying geese units in different directions and coming up with a different block.  So perfect for today's arrival of the song birds.  And come to think of it, I saw two robins today too.  This is block number 73 of 366.  I'm linking with Fabric Tuesday today.  Happy Stitching!!  --Kristen

You have been doing so well with your block a day blocks. I had heaps of posts to catch up on. I was wondering why I hadn't seen you post in awhile and it is because I am a stalker via vignette and have not added you to my blog list. That will be fixed. I have spent a good hour or so reading your blog and feel inspired to get back in my room - I have been absent a little lately. Happy Sewing

I love this block too! I hadn't made flying geese before I started the Swoon, and it has 8 in each block. I love them!! So I esp. love this block!! :o) Glad the birds are back in your neighborhood singing. xo
