Halloween Humbug
Molly is getting very good at selfies...I expect her to turn professional any day now. However, she is still not a fan of Halloween because staff puts on a scary cat mask that neither Molly nor Buddy find amusing. It doesn't look scary in a Halloween sense...more that the eyes are on a spring and who in their right mind would wear such a thing-type scary.
I did manage to finish up the last two Tiny Tuesday blocks and one of these days I will try to account for all of them and figure out what I might do with them. These last two blocks were presented by Angela of SoScrappy and the Rainbow Scrappy Challenge fame.
I also pulled some fabrics that I thought might meet the Frolic mystery quilt color scheme. Frolic is this year's mystery challenge presented by Bonnie Hunter. I usually do a different color way by taking a turn along the color wheel...but this year Bonnie is warning to maintain contrasting colors/values. So I will probably switch the colors up but these can hang out until I come up with another plan.
The first set of instructions are provided the day after Thanksgiving.
I also wanted to show the two objects I picked up at the estate sale. I usually avoid such things because Molly does not allow me to have nice things...well, anything really. She does love her gravity demonstrations. So anything I do get has to be put behind glass doors...well away from Molly's experiment laboratory.
Or you could just keep all your nice things on the floor...
ReplyDeleteI'm dithering over Bonnie's colors. It would be an easy pull from what I have on hand, but I keep seeing purples in place of those blues. And then... Hmmm...
Maybe you should put the google-eyed mask on the shelf next to the trinkets to ward off gravity-experimenting kittens. Cute selfie of Molly, which she probably already knows (and is rolling her eyes at my redundant comment). Like Gayle, I had been thinking of purples, too. Regardless of what I eventually decide on, I’m only going to do about 50-70% of the number of units Bonnie suggests because I.Hate.Square.Quilts.
ReplyDeleteThe tiger is absolutely fabulous, but I would like full on and above views as well. Can Molly manage that? Or is she focused just on selfies?
ReplyDeleteI think your Bonnie Hunter colors need more value contrast in the blues. Didn't she have a light blue and a darker blue?
Love your bird... sugar bowl?
