Repurposing Blocks I No Longer Like

First thank you everyone for your kind words...I picked up some fabric for binding from the clearance table at the quilt shop and will take care of that tonight!

Gosh it feels good to finish off a UFO...like a weight has been lifted. On to the next item!!

Happy Birthday to Bailey! Do you know what he is mixed with? I often thought it could be lab and boxer, but he was a stray, very smart dog.

Bailey is crossed with a golden retriever. His brother lives nearby and takes more after the golden retriever then the lab. When he leans forward he has a saggy face, so we encourage him to keep his nose up LOL...keeps his face wrinkle free. I've attached some pics of him with my dog, and also him with his brother when they were puppies. I forget how small he used to be!!!

Apparently Bailey heard the good news......look at the joyful smile on that pooch! If Bailey decides differently, just PM me. I'll take it off your hands!
