Love it. I've been thinking about Siamese blocks.

I'm a dog person with a Meezer. He's more dog than cat, of course. Used to have two of them. Should probably go get another one. The pound is always full of them.

I have magnifying headgear for close work. Reminds me of half a welder's mask. Unattractive.

Blue Chicken..Love your cats they look FANTASTIC!!!!
I have one of those headlights too (for hiking), but may use for sewing if I need to now. (LOL).
I too look over my glasses at the TV; will have to ask DH if he thinks that sexy or not "LOL"

MEOW!!!! That means I love it!! What a terrific job. Can't wait to see it all together.

About your having to wear glasses, I heard Red Skelton once say "I've reached the age when curiosity now outweighs vanity."

Blue,

This is an awesome BOM :mrgreen: Thank you for sharing, my cats look at me funny with my gear on. They don't understand why those threads are not for chasing and catching as they come through the fabric.

Anxiously await the finished product.

Lovely work blue. Can you do a tut on it?

:D
It's the desire for tiny wee invisible stitches that overrides my vanity! lol

I got all the pieces for the last two blocks done last night, traced onto freezer paper, cut out, ironed onto the fabric, and cut out again. In the middle of ironing them onto the other side.

I never thought of taking photos, I don't think I do anything special, but will take photos of the steps and see what you think.

Baren*eh*ked_canadian, I got you message, will post the name of the patter here in case others want to know too. :-)
