With the holiday, and work, and vet appointments and snow storms and all the mess of everyday life, Burton and I fell terribly behind on our Sewcialites sew-along.
A block is released every Friday (excluding holiday weeks), and we were no four whole blocks behind. Since I couldn’t go to Mom’s on the weekend, I decided the universe was telling me it was time to catch-up!




The block designs have been giving me lots of opportunities to fussy cut and frame some of those cute, fat cats. To refresh your memory, the fabric line I’m using is called Catmosphere. It’s a wild mix of bright colours, and I’ve pulled a few other pieces from the stash that work with it (such as the red swirls, the green butterflies, and the yellow birds)

We now have 11 blocks done, with number 12 to be released on Friday. There are 24 blocks in total so we are almost halfway there! Burton is very excited… I think…
So beautiful!
I think Burton is hiding his enthusiasm.

Those are some beautiful colors! Other than Dear Jane I’ve never done a quilt that had a variety of blocks. It’s very intriguing. I love the look of it. Although with my brain the repetition does serve me well.

I like the new block designs, especially those with the fussy cut cat centers. That woven star would have had me second guessing the fabric placement as I sewed.

Those blocks are just awesome! It is going to be such a happy quilt. For what I think is the first time, I see two of your fabrics that are in my stash.

Everything is coming together on this one. The fabrics are just adorable! And Burton looks ever so elegant on his bed with his new quilt. And don’t those Gnomes look like a fun bunch!
