Mariposa asked me to post a pic of her fabric. It’s very pretty. She’s including one of two accent colors with each one. Be on the lookout for this beauty!

Mariposa beautiful fabric, reminds me of a Monet.
HAV so sorry you have joined the ranks of the sick, get better soon. So far none of the lovely bugs have visited us.
Janice glad you are feeling a little better.
We have a feral cat problem in our park and the main culprit is the woman next door to us called the cat lady. She feeds them daily. Long story short someone got frustrated with the cat poop in their yard and immaturely wrapped it up and put it the suggestion box at main hall. Office volunteers watched 5 hours of tapes and found the culprit. We were told he will get up at the next meeting and apologize to everyone. Even his poor wife doesn’t know it was him. Not sure if public shaming is the correct way to go but it sure should make everyone think twice before doing something so idiotic.
Another sleepless night but enjoying looking through my block patterns

Good morning! Feeling much better except I’ve got a bit of vertigo. I’m assuming that’s from the congestion in my ears. I don’t plan on driving anywhere so I can wait it out for a couple of days.
Terriamn, public shaming will probably be an effective deterrent but it's harsh. Has anyone considered contacting a local shelter to see if there is a spay/neuter program for the cats? They can be sterilized and then are usually returned to the same location. Your neighbor can continue to feed them but new cats won’t be produced and the current population will keep other cats from moving in. A friend had a similar problem with cats at her lake house and this worked extremely well to stabilize and slowly reduce the population.
Packages should begin arriving today or tomorrow. Can’t wait to hear the response to them.
Have a great week, Stars!

My package is out for delivery so I should have it this afternoon. I'm finishing up several D9P throw size quilts and am looking forward to something different. I'm happy to have used up some precuts (both purchased and self cut) that have been hanging around in totes for way too long. I'd have to go count again, but think I'll end up with 7 tops. My "'to quilt" pile is getting rather high.
