    No singing in the shower for me...ever. Would have had the family come a runnin' to see what was wrong with mom. As to my SHDSP, it is all wrapped up, addressed and just waiting for the ok to take it to the post office. Getting exciting as the countdown begins.

    To all you kitty lovers, I just saw that Keepsake Quilting has a bunch of kitty-themed stuff on clearance. They have a whole line of wall quilt patterns that have cats made out of food. There's one from an ear of corn, 3 cat heads as peas in a pod, a broccoli bunch, a stretching cat from a banana, heads as a bunch of grapes, etc.

    You know how you (well I do anyway) get to a certain point in a project and go "OOOH! I hope I have enough fabric!" Well, I was at that point before I started sewing today, and about 20 minutes ago I came to the conclusion that this time, I really may be short and not just terminally paranoid. I'm going to Columbus, GA tomorrow, so I'll be taking a scrap with me and begging the fabric gods that there'll be more just like it at Joann's! Otherwise, you may hear me weeping and cursing all the way from Elisabrat's house.

    these cats come separately and there are about 20 different ones. i couldn't make up my mind which one i liked most so i entered a bom at quilters quarter in kansas. each month i get a new one. on these 4 i chose my own fabric. on the quilt i plan to make i'll use the kit fabric. they are fun to do! ehe designer is also starting a series of dog flowers. i'll look up her name so i can post it. the artist's name is helene knott. her website is under construction so there's only a home page right now. the qeilts/pictures on her home page are gorgeous!

    Dustysmom, there are some here that are concerned that there is not any chatter about mailing. Could you enlighten the masses again one more time por favor? I know last time i mentioned it you said your group.. did you break it up into say three or four groups or are we one big giant group? curiosity for me on that one. But the overall concern again is that there is not any directions yet on what to do. thanks girly.

    too cute those veggie cats. peas in a pod is my favorite. what a fun boom Nancia.

    Did everyone remember to set your clocks ahead this morning?

    Here's where we're at with the swap. There are 4 groups of 3-5 people. Of those, 2 groups are waiting on 1 person. The other 2 groups only have 1 person who's said they're ready. I've emailed everyone this morning who didn't recently post in the group about the status of their project.

    I'm not going to post a "naughty list" at this point because we're not past due yet. But, if you're not ready to ship yet, please let me know you're still alive and about how long until you think you'll be finished & ready to go.

    I've got to run to Columbus, GA to work for a bit today, but I'll be back mid to late afternoon to check email. Happy Sunday!

    You're in 1 of the 2 groups with 1 person not yet ready. I've got you marked down as ready to go.
