Just a few squirrely friends
We all have a few squirrely friends don’t we? Ha! Right now all my friends are wondering if I consider them squirrely. The dictionary defines squirrely (yes it’s slang) as being eccentric, flighty and maybe a bit odd.
Think about this…Henrietta doesn’t see a thing wrong with being squirrely. Most of her friends are squirrely and so this month I’m giving a new meaning to the word!
squir-rel-y: -adjective, fun loving and full of joy. Able to leap tall pumpkins in a single bound. The perfect friend.
Block Six: Henrietta’s Squirrely Friends
We’re 2/3rds through the quilt with this block not counting the border…have you been keeping up? Is this your first try at using wool in applique? How do you like it?
I had so much fun with the wool I can see playing around with it might be in my future! I bought some Robin’s Egg blue and creamy white wool at market that I love. Add a ball of Valdani Pearl Cotton and I’m ready to stitch!
Now I just need to dream up a project…
Hope you all enjoy making block six of Henrietta Whiskers!
Hugs,
Anne

Hi Anne, I too am really enjoying this BOM. This month is adorable- the squirrels look like they are having so much fun! I am trying to put an Australian twist on each block which hasn’t been too hard but you have me a little stumped this time – will have to really put my thinking cup on!!! Thank you so much for these wonderful patterns.

Do I have to admit that I’m a bit squirrelly at times….. and I have to admit it in public… on your blog? Quilty! ;(
Thanks for sharing so much with all of us. Debbie
