Zoey Teaches Social Distancing -

Yesterday afternoon in the sunshine -

Looking off into the distance at ridges and ranges beyond.

After yesterday’s deer chasing adventure we sat Zoey down and gave her a good talking to – not that she will listen.  In dog years we know she is entering that teenager stage, and the eye roll and body language told us that we were ruining her fun and that we didn’t know ANYTHING where herding was concerned.

She didn’t seem to think that deer chasing was not up with social distancing standards.  And after all, if we wanted to enforce the distancing thing, shouldn’t the deer be OUT of the yard, not in it?

When asked what kinds of things ARE good to do during social distancing, she gave us her newest version of Zoey-Yoga-Downward-Dog:

Namaste!

And if you are really good at it – you can do it this way:

And just so I could get it right – we’ve got it on video.

While in time out for deer chasing -

Watching the birds outside the window while maintaining social distance!

(The way she sits is a crack up!)

After the work day was done – the weather was still pleasant enough to go take a long walk up a country dirt road – still talking about that social distancing thing.

She wanted to go tell the cows they needed to be at least 6 feet apart!

More tulip block kitting up has been going on!

And yes, I had cleaned the studio just last week so someone tell me HOW – just HOW things can just explode into this in just a matter of days?

Flurry of creativity!

This made me happy this morning!

I’m cutting into fat quarters as my strip stash of neutrals is looming low.  That means I’m cutting some of each size 1 1/2’’, 2’’ and 2 1/2’’ to replenish.  I don’t need too many 3 1/2’’ strips right now, but the others are dangerously low -

For those who have asked about the Tulip block and where to find the pattern – please click the Addicted to Scraps tab at the top of the blog and scroll down to spring 2019 to find the issue.  You can still get a digital copy I believe.

I’ve got the next round for our Unity Quilt Along part 4 complete and ready for Monday’s reveal!  Today I’ll be working on the graphics, start the post writing, tomorrow finish that up and have the PDF ready to go live Monday morning. 

I feel like it’s a major win when I can stay just this much ahead of the game.

I also wanted you to know that there is now a Binge Worthy tab at the top of the blog where you can view what others have submitted to watch (movies/series/shows) or listen to (audio books.)  The forms are also there so you can add your favorites.  And as this is now a tab on the blog, you’ll never need to go searching for it.  It will stay there, and can always be added to as new suggestions come up.

The only thing I ask is to avoid duplicates – please read down the list to see if your show/book is listed before adding it again.  This will help with the redundancy and the length of the spreadsheets.  Thank you!

It’s a rainy Saturday on the mountain.  There is some mail to go out this morning – the USPS closes at 11am on Saturday so I’ll get that done, get the graphics done, and get back here to hopefully continue the scrap taming while cutting tulip blocks.

What’s up for your Saturday ahead?
