Above is a look at some of the scraps I received from my scrap swap partner, Toni. I love them. Every single one of them is different from anything I have in my stash, I think. And that's amazing, because I have lots and lots of fabric and scraps.
Sophie wanted to say hey before her most recent haircut grows out and she's again a bushy ball of fur. I'm frustrated with the groomings I'm getting for her. Last time was a disaster. This time, the haircut looks pretty good, but the groomer cut a big black mole on Sophie's back (which I tell them about every time), and it's just now healing. I guess I should get the vet to remove it. She knows about it too but has never suggested removing it.
Still making grannies. I've been averaging two a day this week, through yesterday. I have some other projects to take care of today, but I hope to get my two grannies made too.

What great scraps you recieved from Toni. Seriously lots of joy-joy colors and patterns to play with. Have fun!
Miss Sophie looks so prim, proper, and too cute in this pose. I suppose the vet does need to consider removing the mole if it poses a problem or hazzard when she's groomed.
Cheers for your growing collection of finished Granny Squares!!
I continue to try to make better use and sense of my itty bitty sewing room.
Hugs!

Wow Susan, there are some wonderful scraps there, so much variety, I love them. Sweet Sophie looks like a puppy groomed like that, I love that too. Truly looking at Sophie is like looking at a picture of my Sadie Jo. I swear they are twins. She is a poodle/schnauzer mix and was badly abused before we got her away from her abusive owner at 15 months old. But after she got well, massive vet bills and weeks later, she started putting on a few pounds and gradually grew to look so much like Sophie that it is amazing. I too hate it when the groomers cut her too short. We finally found a wonderful groom who we trust with both of our furry kids, even Sadies sis, Friskie who is 12 and has cancer. They are so careful and tender with her, both dogs hate going, but the always come home happy...tired, but happy. They also always get cut exactly as we ask and that is hard to find. My favorite look for them both though, is when they have grown out just a bit and start to get that puppy look about them. Life wouldn't be nearly so good without furry kids in our lives. They bring lots of joy, love and laughter to our home along with lots of love and comfort when I'm down and out with the BHJS and Fibro. Now if I could have a cat, it would complete our little family, but with the doggie doors we couldn't keep one in, and I won't have a cat running loose outside. So, in time, when we no long need the doggie doors open, we will get a cat or two from a shelter. Loved your wake up cat post. I miss the purring alarm clocks, LOL. Hugs...
