Yes. Mom loves cats and one day on pastimes I saw free pattern for the cats meow by south seas. It's bright and colorful just as she likes so I am making it for her. Had hard time finding the panel for it, looked everywhere online, no luck. Went to Pensacola the other day, used to live there, anyway, stopped at A&E store and they had it, yeah. It is the best place for fabric, they have so much. Anyway, she is out of town cruising till the end of may so I have extra time to make it and surprise her when she gets home.

for my mom i'm going to embroider some towels for her guest bathroom. her bathroom is decorated in creams and roses but she has a 20+ year old christmas duck towel hanging in there!! also probably a couple more placemats - her dining table seats 6, but i've only made sets of 4?
the bf's mom is getting that rotary cutting starter set - got it on sale a couple of weeks ago for $13!!! She's mentioned a few times she wants to try quilting (she's an avid seamstress) so I might dig out a couple of easy patterns and hand it all over...
