Lovely! You have a nice space to work in, and I also love the Temple cats. I just googled them, what a lovely story and quilt to do.

For anyone else interested:

Now, I wish I knew how to applique and wish I could afford it!

Thanks for sharing!

He ends up saving the day, proving inner strength is what counts.
A couple of weeks ago we took in a Siamese kitten who has a grade 4 heart murmur. She may not have a long life, but she's tearing around the house like a mad thing, eating really well, growing steadily, and getting into mischief. Everything a kitten should be doing, albeit a bit slower than anyone else. She has a home here and will be loved for as long as she lives, whether it's a week, a month, or years. We named her Jing-Reet, or Jing for short. :-)
