    All of you sound so ambitious! I have found I have loads of Christmas fabric scraps so to use them up, I'm cutting them into 3" wide strips and sewing them end to end. After I have made my "fabric square" out of all the scraps I fold them in four, pur on a batting and binding I cut as big a circile as possible. Then it's use a decorative stitch in all the lin es of stitching, make the hold and bind. I hardly have any scraps left and can now go on to other things.

    Oh - your kitty looks just like mine. Mine is a sweet little girl with extremely soft fur.

    What are people using the snap bags for? And is an oven dress an apron?

    That's me too! I just can't get unstuck from the mud right now to get anything done! I'd be thrilled if I can finish top quilting Le Jardin quilt, then I can start on everything else.
