So, I decided to make a test block. Wanted to see if I would like it and how big a pain in the butt it would be. Not difficult at all, so we are OK there. I think I may need to make a few additional blocks to see if I will like it and how it will work out. I don’t want to use the same colors throughout. Sort of want it scrappy, while retaining the light/dark effect. Not sure how that will be, so I will make a couple more blocks.
Then, I finished English Paper Piecing my Dog Bone dresser scarf. Only one more piece left to do, Kev’s dresser. He really needs one because he has a habit of throwing change and screwdrivers, whatever is in his pocket, on our expensive bedroom furniture. I had never bought bedroom furniture. Always had second hand stuff. Finally, in my fifties, I get my own, brand new bedroom furniture and I really like it. So, I need to protect it with my dog bone dresser scarves.
It is also my crazy dog, Moka’s, second birthday and I am the crazy dog lady, so I will stop and get her something delicious on my way home or take her for ice cream.
Happy Sewing
Happy Quilting

Love the dark / light block, it looks really difficult to me! A quilt with that design would look great; looking forward to seeing where you go with it. Great dresser scarf too (never heard that name before, we must call them something else in the UK!).

Not hard at all. What do you call them in the UK?
