It’s almost a top

 It needs a wider border, but it’s almost there!



And we got snow!!! 

That’s a rare event for eastern NC. It was fun, but I’m glad to see it melt away.

Butterflies from hexies

 This little girl took an interest when I was making butterflies from EPP  hexagons. I have to say, she seems to be a natural with a needle.


Yesterday,  we started putting the sashings in to make the quilt top. 

We are hoping to have it ready to quilt this week. I will do a little hand quilting, but most of it will tied with colorful threads.

Hand Stitching

 I searched and searched for this pattern. It’s Zoie’s kitties by Jan Patek. 



Y
You need 5 kitties to make the little quilt in the pattern. 

I’ve completed one, and question whether I’ll do all five. Ha!

I may improvise a smaller version for myself.

Here’s one version made  from the pattern.


This is a photo from an Instagram post that started it all for me. 

We feed the neighborhood kitties and this quilt really speaks to me. It’s just adorable.

Two Years !!

 It’s been two years since I’ve checked in on my blog. 



I’m going to attempt to blog my stitches this year. I have so many things that I want to get done. *accountability*

A lot has changed since I last blogged, but life is still good. 

I’m linking to  Kathy’s Quilts for Slow Sunday Stitching. If you want to see what others are working on, click the link.

Happy 2025 to everyone!!
