Busy day taking cat to the V.E.T! for her jabs and a drafting skills workshop this pm!
My Saffy is suspicious by nature - I think she can read my mind! When I tried to usher her into the kitchen she knew something was up and despite the offer of treats was most reluctant to come anywhere near me. She just knows I am up to something! Did get her bundled into her box and she meowed with folorn gusto in the car - then she didn't want to get out of the box ! Well she is jabbed and wormed and deflea-ed so we can forget that palaver for a while and go back to being friends - phew!
This pm I am abandoning the kids to hone some drafting skills -I hope to be able to make blocks any size I like - well that is the theory anyway!
I will share any tips I glean of course! And there may even be time for a little bit of shopping.....??
In the meantime I was playing with my leftovers from yesterday and made this wonky shape which seems to be asking me to make it into a Christmas tree pincushion for my Brit Quilt partner. It just needs a trunk or tub on the bottom and a bit of stuffing!
And thanks for all your encouragement yesterday I really do appreciate it!
A bit more confident and ready to just get on with it!

Isn't playtime great! This will make a cute pincushion. Jxo
ReplyDeletev cute tree shape! Your cat reminds me of one of ours - Poppy she can sense as soon as you even think about the vet and is usually v affectionate but takes a huff if you take her to vet, disappears for days!!! she is quite the character x
ReplyDeleteOh, cats, cars and Vets, never a good combination.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see the pin cushion, it's going to be very cute!
I've been looking forward to you going on the drafting course - can't wait to hear all about it! Glad the V.E.T. visit went ok - has she forgiven you yet?! Love the idea of the pincushion, another great idea!!
ReplyDeleteThe tree looks great - look forward to hearing about your new skills!
ReplyDeleteThat pincushion will be cute! Can't wait to hear more about your class. Sounds fun!
