Howdy!
Oh, how pretty!
Great quilts, T; wow!
Ah, The Inscrutable Mr. Mew (reminds me of a Charlie Chan flick):
good taste, dude. ;-P
Lovely family pics; next time you wear the black dress.
Shorter hair since the last pics you posted of yourself. ;-)
Charming, all of it.

What a fabulous quilt pattern. I love both of them! You've got a great
eye for color and your quilting is beautiful. Thanks so much for
sharing. :-)
As to your quilt inspectors, I can see they take their job seriously.
Best regards,
Michelle in Nevada

I love that quilt. It's awesome, and wonderful quilting. Cats are cute,
too. Is the orange one a Ragdoll?

Took a quick browse through many of your pictures. I especially like
the very scrappy quilt with the pink (red?) sashing. Your written
comment was that you wished the sashing were narrower but I think the
wider sashing settles the quilt. I have made similar quilts but the
fabrics all ran every which way. I like the way all your scraps are
horizontal or vertical. Think I will try that the next time. The way I
approach a really scrappy quilt like that is to cut many foundation
pieces and start a box. As I clean the table after a project I fill a
foundation piece. One day I check the box and there are enough
foundation pieces for an entire quilt. Sewing on the foundation pieces
is a good activity for those evenings when you are too tired to think
about a more complicated pattern. Thanks for the inspiration.

That sashing is a small red and white check. Glad you like
the wider shashing. Those scraps doseem to multiply! I
am amazed that I can put together all those scrappy blocks
and the scrap bin seems untouched.
