    Reward yourself. Make two cats. Set timer for 30 min. Go to computer. Times goes off....off you go!

    We used the timer method to make it easier to get the kids ready for bed when they were little. Worked like a charm. They got mad at the time and not us!!

    LOL! I have been very good. I have all the fusible interfacing cut, I have all the bodies ironed onto the fabric and now am trimming them.

    I am taking three plaid shirts, disassembling them, sewing the three colors together, and then randomly ironing on the shapes.

    After I cut out the last body, I need to re-sew the remaining scraps so I can cut heads, legs and tails and repeat.

    I most certainly will post the entire litter when they are done~

    She's online now! Go get some lunch and get back to quilting! LOL! We may not know what you're doing at your house, but we DO know if you're online! You're busted girl! Believe me, I need someone to tell me to get off the computer and get busy too. It's just so much FUN to be online with other quilters! Happy quilting!
