    Busy busy girl! I love your patterns and can't wait to get home to do them! I've been seeing so many wonderful versions of the dogs being posted by your 'Blog Hoppers' and I just knew your 'Seasons Row' would be great! My England sewing room is all packed up, so no sewing until next week for me ~~~eek~~~ I'll have to haunt the blogs I guess 🙂

    Hi Lorna: Not quilting along yet because I've been away for a week. I've got a lot of catching up to do. First I have to decide what size to make. I think it's going to be smaller blocks but a bigger quilt!
