not lion & lamb

as in the April coming and going reference,
but, there is a tune,
with a lion in it,
that just keeps going
'round and 'round in my head
as I stitch on my applique.
It just took me a while to figure out what it was.

carrots and bunnines and blooms,
carrots and bunnines and blooms,
carrots and bunnines and blooms, oh my!!

Do you recognize the repetition and cadence?

The tune that keeps going round and round in my head
as I finish stitching the last of the applique?

Lions and tigers and bears, oh my!!
The Wizard of Oz tune that
Dorothy, the Tin Man and Scarecrow sing...

Carrots and bunnines and blooms, oh my!!!
as I skip stitch merrily
down the path of yellow brick
around the last block of applique...

Can you tell I'm lovin' this quilt??

Thanks, Dawn Heese, for the great pattern.
