Two weeks without a post??? C'mon, ladies... how's the stash-busting going?
I am *still* working on the hand quilting for the kingsize quilt. WHAT WAS I THINKING? The body is done (well, it is because I decided to simplify the quilting); now have to do the borders. I really worry I won't have it done in time for Christmas, so I'm not allowing myself to even go INTO my sewing room (because that's where that distracting stash is!)
That said, I did take a break a couple weekends ago to work on a new, stash-based top for my sister. This is Helene Knott's "Let Sleeping Cats Lie" pattern. I don't typically work from patterns, but I thought I better not try to do this one without it. It's for my sister who has lost a couple of her own dear inspectors this last year. She lives in the southwest. With one exception, I haven't appliqued the heads on yet, and then there will be appliqued mice at the intersections of each square.
