Design Wall Monday

……or design bed as the case is today.  This is a framed nine patch from Jan’s tutorial here made with a bundle of fat quarters.  This is a scrap club project that I think I’ll want to make a little bigger with borders of some kind.  We’ll see.

We took a drive through some rural farming country this weekend and were looking at the animals on the farms.  DH and I both did a double take at this one:

What the heck????  Where do you get a zebra in southern Illinois?

I did a favor for a friend and she gave me a gift certificate to Hancock’s of Paducah……which explains why this was on my doorstep when I got home tonight.  Beefing up my neutrals and a beautiful purple piece 🙂  Gotta love the Hancock’s yellow/green florescent shipping bags 😉  Thanks, Margaret!!
