Progress on the Pictorial Quilt and Wildlife of Course

Almost finished appliqueing the first block from Harriet Power's Pictorial Quilt, not easy, those tiny points, using the needle turn method.  Have the four at the top to finish, won't look so orange when they are covered by a white floral circle. 

Once again, the original, courtesy of the Boston Museum of Fine Arts.  Looking ahead to the next block, need to find some black muslin or a solid homespun that doesn't scream, needs to be slightly faded.

Bailey, of course he has to be in the room with his second Mum,

Sidney being his first, set up on not one quilt, but two and a heating pad and he's snoring so loud that Sidney and I both left the room when he was having a cat dream.

My view from my window as I sit at the computer.  The sheep surprised me by climbing the rock ledge below the house and looking like they weren't pleased.  Something had scared them from the lower meadow.

So they stayed close to the house, I could have smelled them if I had opened a window, not that they smell bad,  a little one looking at me thru the window, see the tiny horns, both females and males have them at this stage.  As they get older the horns on the males get huge.

They are at ease now, all worries gone as they graze.
