CQJP blocks are finished...



All my CQJP  blocks are finished... well except for the pocket page... I  have 14 pages.  I will use the month of December to assemble the book.. It was really a fun project but I definitely got tired of black and white.

This will be one of the last pages in the book.. I used my new ribbon book to learn how to do the little prairie points.











Under the lift-up tab..... Morris likes hugs...















My favorite page... Morris in the skunk trap...

















And the back cover.  Both dogs watching the wild turkeys at the feeder. If there is a deer or rabbit in the garden the dogs want to rush out and chase it....but not the turkeys..
I took all the pages along to Olympia for Thanksgiving and my 5 year-old granddaughter loved  every page... It was a delight to watch her explore each page...














In a self-destruct mode last week I caused myself serious injury and will go into the hospital Friday morning for eye surgery...  Morris will be called on duty as my caring nurse..AGAIN!!!!!

  1. Oh dear Gerry. Eye damage is not good. Good luck with the surgery. I have a lot of eye troubles but they are from an inflammatory condition, not an injury. Morris will have to administer lots of hugs, which I'm sure he'll enjoy. I bet it was a lot of fun to share your Morris book with your granddaughter. Speedy recovery.

  2. Your Morris themed book will be a fun book to browse through and admire.
    I do hope your surgery goes well and that you will be recovered soon!
    Take care!

  5. Oh no. I hope the surgery goes well and that you are back stitching in no time. Morris looks like a great friend and I'm sure he will take good care of you.
