Sneak Peak!

These fabulous fabrics are 

"On the Wing" by Abi Hall for

Moda Fabrics

and have been in waiting in my stash for the "right" project to come along.

I am sew happy to say that project arrived this month!

Master Quilty Kitty Katniss

has approved this fabric selection!

Time to sew!

Apprentice Quilty Kitty Maestro 

has a lot to learn.

These little kitty feet were trying to catch the fabric going under 

my presser foot.  

Sew I had to take a break from sewing.

Baby kitty has gone to take a nap.

Time to sew!

I am loving this WIP!

Right now it is as hush hush as mama's machine 

when it is time for baby quilty kitty to take her nap.

Looking forward to sharing more photos soon!

:-) 

Time to Quilt!

 

Cat On Guard

 

Butterfly says ... 

"Mama is working on one of those top secret quilty projects."

 

It is for ... 

@ Sew We Quilt 

 

Full Schedule Here

 

"Mama says we have to be ready to post on May 29th ...

so I have to be very helpful."

 

Under Wraps

 

"Mama said to keep this under wraps ...

that means I wrap up in it and jump out at you if you try peeking.

You do not want to mess with The Claw."

 

Naptime

 

"Mama, you do not want to quilt this right now do you?

I need my nap."

 

The Chair

"Mama took the quilt.

This leaves me no choice but to

take The Chair"

 

 

 Ready!

 

Set!

 

Quilt!

It's The Cat's Life.

A New Test Quilt - WIP Wed

Fabrics for a *new* Test Pattern Quilty Adventure!

 

Today I am starting a new project. 

I will be testing a pattern for my very good friend

 

Dorian @ Ridge Top Quilts

 

I am really excited about this pattern. 

It is fun and easy to make and very striking.  The good news is that although this is a test quilt and I cannot post too many pictures right now, it will soon be a

Free Pattern

available as for a short time from Dorian

and at our quilty home away from home at

 

The Quilt and Needle

 

More details will be posted as they become available!

Sew exciting!
