Alright I'm in. I just finished my Christmas presents so I'm ready to make my wall hanging for another swap. I can add one more for February lol.

Just so I don't forget a few of my favorite things...not including my daughter. Lol. Cats (I have 5) and my mini doxie (he's an odd ball and has dapple markings that match dfs Harley). Pink and green are my favorite color combo along with black and grey. My house is super country style lots of dark wood work and browns so I stay away from those colors unless I put on my boots.

There's really only two colors I don't like. Purple and emerald green.

Ok off to send my info to our gracious swap boss!

Is there a study linking crazy cat ladies to fabric hoarders disguised as quilters lol!!!

I adore my cats they are my babies even when they drive me nuts.

I wonder too.

Love my 3 fur kids, quite often they bring me much laughter
with the crazy stuff they do.

The "dude" aka Gizmo likes to sit in the bathroom and yell
to get someone to come give him some attention, then he
wants the linen closet door opened so he can jump in the towel
shelf and make a mess out of the neatly stack hand towels and
wash clothes.

Miss "whiny " aka Nim will give you this "poor pitiful me" look
and meow to get you to give her some attention. Or she sometimes
will steal my elastic hair bands and brings them to my hubs so he
can throw them for her to go chase.

Then there is "the monster" aka Kiko now my oldest. When she decides
it is time for attention she will wait til I am in bed than climb on my side
or stomach and I swear she has volume controls on her purring because
she always gets louder when I am watching something on tv, but let a
commercial come on and she has a soft low purr, and she demands to
get pets. But when she is done with the attention and pets instead of just
getting off you and leaving, she will bite you to make you stop they she runs
off the bed.

I have 2 bins of "cat fabric" on top of everything else that I have.

I think I had more than two bins full of cat fabric. I'm not sure how much I have currently, I had to totally purge my sewing room in order to pull carpeting. Now everything that I couldn't bear to part with is in bins and boxes. At least now I can find the pins on the floor, and when the kitties leave me little prezzies, I see it before I step in it, and it's easy to clean up. Last night one of the dear creatures did something unmentionable on my christmas tree skirt - I had to toss that in the wash and hang it up inside since we got rain overnight (buckets and buckets). Luckily it washed up fine and it's back under the tree this AM. This time there's wrapped presents on it to keep that from happening again. What a bunch of brats I have!

oh dear LADIES no sharing the bad things cats do.. it makes those 'haters' find an excuse to say SEE SEE cats are rotten! its not true! they are adorable and a very huge part of my life. the best thing about my cats: they love me when I am down and out, in a cruddy grumpy mood, sicker than a dog, no make up on, wearing jammies all day they do not care at all. they just think I am marvelous and they are so easy to please with a simple pet or two. I say cats are worth their weight in gold and then some. Just saying you know.. a little bit of a cat lover. My email is a goofy one about cats.. I used to run a kitten rescue. did over 300 kittens in two years. The shelter has to put down babies that need bottle feeding. Not enough help to save them. I took them and cared for them, fixed vaccinated and adopted them out.. it was such a small thing to do and so very rewarding. Yup a little bit of a cat lady here.

RUNNERS, I know you can't pick fabrics yet til you get to know your partner (by the way what a cool thing getting to know each other more than just by a name) but you can be picking patterns. there are a ton for free, killer ideas on pinterest that you can find also.. so I suggest if you pick a pattern or two now you will be ready come January when you get your name. The pattern picking takes ten times as long as fabric picking does. Show some ideas of designs you would like to make. its a fun way to encourage each other in creativity.

MizMelly

I have a hoard of table runner patterns, and have more than a few ideas from Youtube videos! Haven't checked pinterest yet, but that's next. Fun, fun, fun!
