Natural Bug Zapper & Some News

-

Meet my little friend who lives by my porch! The best thing about toads is the eat bugs, so do little lizards, we have those too but as of yet, I haven't gotten a picture of one. Why because they are to fast. Mr. Toad was sunning himself this morning when I snapped these photos.

Craftsy BOM Block 10 is a Wonky 5-Sided Log Cabin

I have all May's blocks done now! Woot, woot! I know, I know it is June. Look for Junes two blocks next week. I want you to know I did follow all the directions and still ended up with a 4 sided block. How did that happen?


July 1, 2012 - July 16, 2012 will be the Red, White, and Blue Blog Hop

I have completed a 12 1/2" block using Moda Prairie Paisley II for the blog hop. Hoping some of you choose to make it. "In The Boon Docks" featured day is July 6, and a page will be dedicated listing all the dates and blogs involved. A giveaway will be held during the blog hop.

    We have a toad that lives in the bricks of the retaining wall surrounding my herbs. Name? Herbie. Of course.

    What a lovely quilt block. I like how you added the plaids and stripes in there.

    What a cute little guy, we had a little lizzard in our bathroom for a while. Haven't seen him in a while, don't know where he went. Love Prairie Paisley, made a quilt using PP 1, can't beat the colors.

Update This Giveaway is closed! And the winner is ... #105 gpc March 5, 2014 at 12:13 PM I follow your blog! :) Think Ruffles Blog Hop Welcome to "In The Boon Docks" and Day 1 of the "Think Ruffles Blog Hop"! My name is Lisa and I am so happy you are here today to see my quilt with ruffles! I have to thank Madam Samm @ Sew We Quilt and Amy (Head Cheerleader)@ Sew Incredibly Crazy for arranging this great hop! What is a ruffle? There are lots of different kinds and Madam Samm left it open to interpretation. She showed us how to make some and at the time I was thinking; ruffled bloomers, ruffled dresses, ruffled pillows. Then I saw a quilt in a magazine with what looked like ruffles! I kind of browsed through the issue of Quilt-it today , March/April 2014 issue and left it in my rocking chair and went to work. The second time I read the "Garden Path" pattern by Ann Baxter, (I had already made the quilt), it read "ruching", you don'
