Hello BOM Friends! Since I refuse to get behind this time, I’m sending Months 4 and 5 at the same time. To keep from getting confused, I recommend putting Month 5 completely out of sight until you’re ready to tackle it. Month 5 Main Block Assembly. This block is a variation of the pineapple log […]
Hello BOM Friends! How is everyone? Spring has arrived in Central New York, off and on anyway. It was in the low 70s today. Bliss! Next week we might have two feet of snow, but for now, the birds are singing birds and a cool, gentle breeze is hitting my face as I sit outside […]
