I paired 10 more groups for the 16 patch quilt. I have added some that are more turquoise in tone with this batch.
I had a pair of ring neck doves under the feeder yesterday. I had seen some earlier this spring but they didn't pose for a photo like this pair did.
I have a cardinal pair that visit all the time now. The Mrs. was over under a different feeder when I got this shot. In the background is a mourning dove. It was in the 50s yesterday with light rain a couple times. I got another hosta dug up and pulled it apart into 3 separate plants. It was getting too big for its location. I lost a few hostas last year with the drought so I replaced one of those from this plant. I wanted to get this done before the rain tonight and tomorrow.
We got through our day with showers off and on. I need to get some more of the hostas divided also. Chris
ReplyDeleteooh, I love your blues!
ReplyDeleteYou have got to have the BEST stash ever!!!
ReplyDeleteLike the turquoise tones a lot-may I bid on that block? We have a pair of red finches who have given birth and are feeding their noisy youngsters in a nest they build every year over a light in front of our garage. Have a pic of the nest-haven't caught the birds on film yet.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous blue batiks!
ReplyDeleteI enjoy your bird photos. In my yard I have an abundance of lovely house finches and goldfinches. I love the songs as much as I love the color.
I just absolutely love your batik blues 16 patch...I AM going to have to make one myself. Julierose

Your paired batiks are lovely, I really enjoyed looking at your 16patch batik quilt the other day lovely colours.
ReplyDeleteI have a few of those batiks. I love turquoise, so it is nice to see what you pair them up with. Yummy. Nice to see your birds in the yard.
ReplyDeleteYour blues are looking good.
ReplyDeleteWe have a cardinal pair here, too and probably a blue jay pair but have only seen him. Of course we have doves and lots of mockingbirds!

Love your bird photos, I feed the birds and take photos also. Beautiful squares.
ReplyDeleteYesterday my girlfriend brought me a bouquet of flowers that were blooming in her garden, Peony, Colombine, Lilac and Iris all in pinks and purples and the house smells wonderful. Also received a birthday gift of lettuce planted in an old spring form pan with a tag on it saying "Lettuce wish you a Happy Birthday". How clever she is. More rain expected today.
