Marsha, thats so cute! A great idea too. I just had to replace my wallet because I stuff it so full of stuff.

You CAN go ahead and work on your dogs if you'd like..I'll be posting the swap sometime next week...another fun one I think.

I really can't wait to get all the kitties in and start swapping them...they are all so cute!

What a relief not to have it in a box with me wondering what to do with it. I say, better to finish it without perfection than to have it unusable...cluttering up your space and mind. :thumbup:

You are so right. Thanks for the advise. You are right. I felt so good when I got that first one done. Thanks.

Soon you'll have some cats to stitch together. As for those quilt blocks, hope they work for you. If they don't or you don't like them, they can always be used on the back of a quilt, given to charity, or used for something like this.....

Made from orphan blocks I didn't like for my quilt

Thank you. They are much better as a bird than in my postage stamp quilt.

Now to do a bird with an orphan cat block might be rather interesting don't ya think? Love that bird. I used some orphan blocks to make a teddy bear.

Those are really cute...maybe save them for the next cat swap! I bookmarked the page, probably should go ahead and download the pdf's of the cats though.
