Eight more days!

Well, eight more days - this is sure tough waiting.
I want to see the new quilt that will be published in The Quilt Pattern Magazine August issue - http://www.quiltpatternmagazine.com but she has hidden it. I am having to find alternative places to take my nap. Sure would be nice on the new quilt!

Nine more days!!!

Well she won't let me see the quilt until August 1, so I will settle for this cold tile floor (actually it feels good because it is so hot!)

Oh no, there are dog pawprints all over this floor!!!  This is not good!!!

Only Ten More Days!

I still love my quilt, but I've got my eyes on the newest Purrfect Spots quilt that will be published in the August issue of The Quilt Pattern Magazine - http://quiltpatternmagazine.com in 10 days.

Purrfect Spots - 15 Year Anniversary Coming in August!

It is a rainy day here and what better thing to do than curl up with my stuffed dog and take a nap. I am watching my owner work on her website. She is going to have new patterns available on her site in August! She is also going to have a new quilt pattern published in The Quilt Pattern Magazine in August as well. Infact August is going to be a very busy month for her as it will be the 15th anniversary of Purrfect Spots and there will be lots of specials going on. Meanwhile I am going back to sleep!!!

What are your favorite types of handwork?

I love to quilt by hand. It is so relaxing for me. But I also like to do cross stitch as well. Somehow I find that I can find order in my life when I am stitching and it is a good feeling. This is one of my cross stitch pieces, but I have many more. This is one of my patterns, but I also like to stitch other designer's patterns and that I call my "fun" stitching. Not that my own designs are not fun, but I can't seem to get the designer out of me and am constantly questioning how I can make it better. So by doing other patterns that are not my own, I seem to give my brain a rest. I would love to hear your thoughts and comments, please!
