Block-A-Day 23 – Shocky’s

Tina January 23, 2021Block-A-Day Leave a Comment

Today I continue my quest in creating and posting one block a day of the fabulous That Town And Country Quilt by the lovely Susan Claire. This is day twenty-three of that project.

Oh boy! This was a fun one! Another clever design by Susan Claire.

This is the local electrician’s shop. When I was a girl, one of the electricians in our town was named Shocky.

Even though I was too young to have known him, I never forgot because I thought it was such a funny name. I again used Micron Pigma pens in red and black. I couldn’t resist the lightning bolt.

I hope you enjoy seeing my posts every day; I’m sure having fun doing it!
