A New Block – Mr. Scarecrow

I have gotten started on the second to last block.  Mr. Scarecrow.  He is a delightful fellow and I am progressing well towards his completion.  I struggled this past weekend with one particular item on the block.  It would have been fussy piecing and I finally realized I was dragging my feet because I did not want it on my block.  My dilemma consisted of two tiny houses set in the background for depth perception.  I decided that those people don’t live there anymore and the houses would just have to be relocated for rural revitalization.   Make room for more pumpkin patches!

I am proud to say I survived the past two days rainfall without incident.   I was able to cross my two low water bridges without any problems.   Yay!! I  made the right decision to purchase a 4 wheel drive.  I stood on my deck last night and listened to the roiling waters from those creeks.  If I can hear the water from where I live then that means no crossing the low water bridges.   Apparently, I got through just in time and I am very thankful for that, for not only to be able to sleep in my own bed, but I needed to make my dishes for our church dinner tonight.

Happy Stitches…..
