Cats & Quilts - a match made in heaven... (except maybe those stubborn little clouds of fur that latch on to the fabric!)

Kitty Quote of the Day

I love cats because I enjoy my home; and little by little, they become its visible soul. - Jean Cocteau

Happy Scrappy!


There seems to be plenty happening here this month amongst lots of work hours but not much to show for it, doing some secret sewing, knitting a few rows of Christmas balls...... more about that in my 1 Christmas Item A Month post. I made 1 snuggly-bug block with a cute little unicorn,


and a pair of cute little bowls so I could play Christmas Swap angel to my good friend Shez.


I love that fabric I used on the outside of the bowls & the Paris Holiday used as wrapping is pretty cute too.

It's been hot here again so there have been a few naps & lots of yawns....


The cherry tomatoes are prolific....


And little Brun has done his best to try & kick start the broken laptop (when I just read this through I had typed 'lick' start - bet that wouldn't have worked either!). Even he couldn't work any magic so it is holidaying in the laptop workshop.


But most of all I want you all to....


If you haven't entered my giveaway, please leave a comment on the previous post here. Thanks to those who have & the new followers, look forward to the draw next Sunday. I have been playing with the auto draw programs but wonder if maybe I should go the old fashioned way & let the boys help? It only seems right.

Happy stitching

  9. Check out those teeth lol. They are great pressies and I love the unicorn block you have made too. Purple must be the colour of the moment as my youngest is madly collecting purples to make a suffolk puff quilt! Guess I will be very busy making puffs lol

  10. I love the fabric on the fabric bowls. How very french! I don't think I've ever seen a rosary on fabric like that before, which is odd when you think about it, because once upon a time practically the whole country was made up of practicing Catholics. I like it! Love everything else too, especially those two sleepy kitties. :)
