Greetings and salutations dear friends!
Well the first thing I love for "I like Thursday" is that Oxford scientists have had promising results with a covid-19 vaccine. It will still be months until their study is done...but it is a faint light at the end of the tunnel. Of course, this news is making other researchers work even harder.
I love Oxford, mostly because I love PBS and have been watching mystery shows based there for decades. First there was Inspector Morse, then Inspector Lewis and now Endeavour. My favorite is Inspector Lewis and that show has great views of the university. Of course, who couldn't love the institution that brought us C. S. Lewis, Tolkien, and Lewis Carroll?
I'm still making masks but I got one UFO finished this week (or semi-finished). I finished this top for my friend Linda and at her request, made a table runner from the few blocks left.
Over on the Pennsylvania Piecemaker (suffrage) blog, tomorrow will be "Flower Friday" and will feature flowers of yellow, purple, and white to honor our foremothers. Tomorrow I'll be talking about my own suffrage garden and invite you to join me!
For other positive posts, visit our hostess, LeeAnna and be sure to check on our friends who are leaving sunshine on the internet today!

Just love that Christmas quilt, Michele...going to be a beauty;
Lovely likes here. Cute squirrel story; doing some housekeeping it seems.
My daughters Lab chased a coyote last week...Abby doesn't chase any dogs or people but when this guy crossed their lawn, she took great exception and chased it. Luckily not too far.
these poodles! Milo is very brave until something like that happens and he wisely runs to fight another day! He's been spooked by floating plastic bags, halloween decorations, rustling leaves....
We've always trimmed him for better or worse. It's time to do again as he grows hair like he's being paid for it. Your tulips are so pretty... not much spring here altho it went from too cold to too hot
jealous that people there keep their distance... not here. They seem to take offense when we cross the road to avoid TOO CLOSE CONTACT
That combination of dark blue sashing and bright pinwheels is so appealing! How nice to have a tablerunner from your friend's leftover blocks. Poor Scout - that squirrel must not have looked quite right to her! I'll look forward to your suffrage post tomorrow, and that reminds me to start working on my project! Happy Thursday!
LOL. That squirrel! That's hilarious! I love those pinwheel blocks with the black (navy?). Very pretty.
Hi Mickie! Oh, I would have loved to see Scout's expressions, etc. with that squirrel. I can't possibly imagine what was running through her mind. Like you said, monster squirrel!! We have had rain, rain, rain - over three inches in three days. Just NOW the sun came out. Ahh. It is so nice to see even though it sets in 30 minutes. Maybe we'll have a turn in the weather now. Our grass is wonderfully green . . . and growing like a weed. Take care! ~smile~ Roseanne
Oh envious that you get to garden. We have still been a wee bit cold. I did pull weeds for a couple of hours one day. Your Scout story made me giggle.
I'm encouraged about the vaccine news out of Oxford too! I hope it works. Wouldn't it be great to get back to life as it was?? I love your pinwheel quilt. The runner as a nice bonus! It was actually warm here today and I got to enjoy the warmth. It was so nice to be outside!
