Oh my yes a rainy day, two postings and another cat quilt! This piece started out as
a set of place mats using the bits & pieces of 'cat fabric'.
I was scrap busting! Then along came a yard sale where several more pieces
of cat fabric jumped into my arms.
This is called 'Ode to Cats'. I have yet to add some more to the cat silhouettes,
what more I have yet to decide.
Recently, I was chatting about how quilts look when the sun is shining
through them. I love what happens. The quilting is not noticeable on most of the front,
but on a plain portion of the back, the outline quilting shows up very nicely. This scrap
quilt took much longer then I thought it should but as I had no plan....just kept sewing, cuttingsewingcutting, and then I stopped. It needs a label. It's for sale.
Happy Wednesday,

Scissors
It is a rainy day today. I am pleased it's raining. Yesterday I did
some planting....many of the gardening shops have sales.
The 'sale babies' need to be planted quickly, that's what I did
yesterday. I am trying cabbages this year. I am a big fan of 'slaws'.
I planted them near by and hope soapy water on them now and again,
will deter worms and such.
I've had some fun since I last blogged.
A friend sent me a pair of scissors, a duplicate of a pair
she sent previously, that I rave about. I in fact, panic
when I miss lay them. The gold has been lovingly used up.
Thanks Donna, your the best!! Now I have a pair near each
sewing machine.
