A Framed Spring POTC Block

I know I said I was going to keep joining the cream hexagons but I couldn’t resist and just had to add the cream hexagons and purple squares to this block. Our weather feels so much like spring and a pink and green block says spring to me so I went with it. For some reason the darker pink hexagons aren’t showing as their true colour in this photo. It’s not quite as red as it appears.

The back of the block. When I was joining the cream hexagons to the block, I used two colours of thread — green and a deep pink.

This photo is definitely a contender in the “where is his head” category. When we saw Lester lying like this, we practically fell over each other to get the camera.

Smudge in a photo that is a bit soft focus, but I love the expression on his face.

It looks just wonderful framed up in the purple. Really adds some zing! We have been having wonderful weather too. It just couldn’t have come at a better time. I love it! You are right on both accounts with the cats. Where is the head? and just too beautiful!

I was going to start with the block but “where’s his head” is so dang hilarious I swear that belongs on your sidebar! That’s a classic.

I agree, that a beautiful photo of Smudge. Don’t the colors of his eyes really blend beautiful with all the colors in his coat – in hand with the markings? Yes, very nice photo.

Okay well I’m all out of words now. The block rocks. (*karendianne. being silly)

The block is lovely. I don’t think I would have the patience to tackle it 🙂 I’m definitely impressed with how well the back is put together.

I wouldn’t be able to resist adding the purple either. The blocks yesterday look so good. I would never make this pattern so I can enjoy it through yours.

Ok Lester IS more laid back than Smudge. I think we have the proof.

I really like that hexagon…would you be willing to tell me the dimensions…I would like to draft it in my EQ6.?

I’ve seen that “where is his head” pose MANY times with our Gandalf. And I note that our cats have similar taste in catnip toys – or else those little “Christmas stocking” toys are everywhere! LOL
