It's a Mystery....

Finished! My UFO finish for May: Summer Blooms
I only did stitch in the ditch and outlining on this one since it's so small--25" square.
I thought it would be a good idea to get last year's summer freebie from Primitive Gatherings done before the 2014 BOW blocks start showing up in the mail box!

I'm not sure if I will do the free online sew along from PG yet--I'm printing out the patterns for now, because.....

Somehow I resisted signing up for Bonnie Sullivan's Bertie's Year Block of the Month, even though he is SO adorable! 

I also love Bertie's Winter, but he was a little easier to say no to--I have Christmas quilts coming out of my ears! 

You knew there would be a but coming......

But when I was perusing this magazine:

Chock full of cute stuff! 

I came across this Bonnie Sullivan four part mystery--Susie's World!
Can I resist a mystery???  

 Obviously not!

Susie is a cat.
Isn't she cute?
Going by the magazine photos, I guess she is supposed to be a gray tabby, but I had a lot of this mottled gold wool in my stash. Now Sally looks like my old cat Possum (and acting like her!).

This may be Bertie--I'm not sure, since he doesn't have a head ornament, but he could be a relative. Actually, with the nest full of eggs, this must be Bernice.

I couldn't pass up Susie's World--it has three of my favorite themes: birds, cats and cherries! Now I just have to keep my eyes peeled for the next three issues of SimplyVintage !
