And we made it to March! I should be able to start my garden outside soon, and I am hoping to eat fresh asparagus by the end of the month. My asparagus bed is well established now, and I am really looking forward to cream of asparagus soup. It is wonderful to have something to harvest this early in the season while everything else is just beginning to grow.
For this month, our Safari sighting is a meerkat. One of my cats often assumes a meerkat position when she spots something especially interesting or exciting, and it always makes me laugh. So when I was looking for African animals and the meerkat came up, I just had to include it in this BOM. His round face turned out a bit cartoonish, but it was too charming to leave out. I hope you like him too!
Für meine deutschen Leser: Das deutsche Wort für meerkat ist Erdmännchen. In Afrika gibt es auch ein Tier, das auf Deutsch Meerkatze genannt wird, aber das ist eine Affenart und nicht mit den Erdmännchen verwandt. Manchmal machen Übersetzungen/Sprachen echt keinen Sinn.
As always, the pattern will be available for free download until the end of the month and move to the pattern store when the April block is released.
EDIT: The month of free download is over, and the block has moved to the pattern store where it is now available for purchase.
He’s adorable!
Oh, super. Er ist so goldig. Mein Mann liebt Erdmännchen. Obwohl er in USA von einem gebissen wurde. Den werde ich ihm mit Freude nähen. Danke für den schönen März-Block, Beatrice
He is so cute! He looks a lot like the animals around here. Thank you for the pattern.
Thank you so much for adding the Meercat. I love them so much I have them in my gardens everywhere and special ones I bring out at Christmas time.
So cute!!!!!
I just found you so I have missed out on your first 2 animals but I look forward to the rest of them. Thank you so much.
