My first hedgehog is done. This is my practice one and I can see I need to be a bit more careful with the piecing of the strips. I also think a lighter fabric for the spines would work better although I do want them colourful. I really like the block and am looking forward to making them as well as putting them together for the quilt. I think I am going to add sashing between the blocks so the quilt will be a bit bigger.
Hubby thinks he looks like a fox. I just think Hector Hedgehog is really cute.
I finished getting my garden planted yesterday. The tomatoes were getting a bit leggy so I buried them as deep as possible. We had a nice rain last night and today so that should help them get established. I would urge everyone to plant as much of a garden as they can this year. Even a pot or two on a balcony will help the grocery bill. Everyone I talk to believes that not only will the food prices going to continue to rise but we will also have shortages. I have talked to my husband to buy extra chicken feed and store it for the winter. If things improve, we can still use the feed.
Blessings,
Love the dotty spikes!
