I had chosen 3 UFOs to work on for the month of February.
1. Make 10 Log Cabin Bow Tie Blocks. So far I have 5 made for a total of 31.
Only 89 to go...lol
2. Get my Autumn Plus Quilt quilted. I finally got the backing pieced. Will
sandwich it this weekend.
3. Finish the applique on my Henrietta Whiskers Quilt.....Ta Da!!
I added my initials and the year. Hopefully this will get sandwiched this weekend and then I can start hand quilting it. So I'm doing pretty good with my list. I'm already thinking of what UFOs to work on next month.
Yesterday we went to Lake St. Clair Metro Park. Should have gone today because it is bright and sunny out. Yesterday it was very gray out. But we had a nice walk.
They were out ice fishing on the lake. And as you can see we weren't the only ones walking dogs. Sammie barked at the St. Bernard. If he would have barked back I know she would have hidden behind us.
After walking the board walk we drove over by the boat launching area. We usually see swans over there and today was no exception.
This pair was between us and the Island. They are so beautiful and serene.
About 100 feet away in the canal we found another pair of swans as well as some ducks.
We almost missed seeing them as they blended so well with the ice.
They swam over to the other side of the canal. Then the one swan spied a duck and didn't like the looks of him. The chase was on.
As quickly as the chase began it quit. I guess the swan had better things to do.
I hope you enjoyed by walk at the park and the swans. I really love watching them.
I hope you are having a wonderful and productive week.
Hugs, Cathy

I saw some swans today on a pond on my way to town. I'd never seen them there before.
ReplyDeleteI do like your added applique. well done on a finish. The swans are beautiful! It looks so cold!

ReplyDeleteBeautiful swans - what a treat to be able to watch them. We have many types of ducks on our pond but never swans.
