I want to thank all of you for raising such kind, curious, and respectful little humans. When the news is full of depressing reports about people's behavior, it warms my heart to come to school each day and spend it with your children. These children give me faith that they will make the USA a wonderful and more tolerant nation as they grow up and start making life decisions. Have a wonderful weekend and hold them extra close!' <br />Deb Ahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04206921657695916898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4814262528756246837.post-34557132847876230162016-11-14T21:09:37.942-07:002016-11-14T21:09:37.942-07:00Padded cell?

Better yet, a certain elected person ought to be the one in that padded cell - locked up and key thrown away. It is absolutely terrifying to hear the reports on the news about how quickly racial issues have escalated and I fear this whole thing has set the inroads to equality that have been made back at least two generations. I'm so glad I live where I do, but I know whatever happens is going to spill over to us. All we can do is hide in our sewing rooms and spread love through what we create.Magpie's Mumblingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09852241848575954128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4814262528756246837.post-60342111718734183612016-11-14T17:33:43.516-07:002016-11-14T17:33:43.516-07:00Love your purple litter of kitties.

I slept through Wednesday and Thursday pretty much. He is still depressed and I am getting more angry and redirected my anger into the effort to change Indiana's method of Gerrymandering from partisan to an independent committee.<br /><br />Every time I see an update to your kitty quilts my mind immediately thinks "Here Kitty Kitty, Here Kitty Kitty. Still loving these purple blocks. Glad the remodel is progressing nicely. The best I could do was to buy a new area rug to cover the wood floor in the dining room. I must keep it covered or Tyson falls on his nubby tail when the runs to play rag toy with Boscoe.<br /><br />Have a Happy Week!<br />xx, CarolCarol- Beads and Birdshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11062821517519300477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4814262528756246837.post-82502300809223504762016-11-12T19:45:51.768-07:002016-11-12T19:45:51.768-07:00And what does the Best Friends animal sanctuary th...And what does the Best Friends animal sanctuary think about all of these litters of kittens? Tommy and Jimmy used to donate to Best Friends because they liked the idea of cats and dogs off in a different state. I've always been a fan of the bento box quilt and it must be fall for me to enjoy those browns. Except they do look a bit like Buddy.Sally Trudehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11412466214275694996noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4814262528756246837.post-50891542055164276582016-11-12T17:00:22.774-07:002016-11-12T17:00:22.774-07:00The choices for Ryan's quilt are all masculine...The choices for Ryan's quilt are all masculine and will suit your fabrics. The selvege quilt is perfect for you this year, so easy and, as you say, you can just add them as they come. You are doing a great job on your house and the results will be worth it. Keep hanging in there and sew when you can.PaulaB quiltshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03850498636712774853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4814262528756246837.post-60840020178352207252016-11-12T15:37:45.788-07:002016-11-12T15:37:45.788-07:00Of course I love the kitties, but the deer head pa...Of course I love the kitties, but the deer head panel is AWESOME! I fell in love with the deer head pattern on the cover of Simply Moderne (issue 2, I think), but I'll never have the time to make that. The panel is a great alternative! I like all the pattern ideas for the neutrals, but your favorite is definitely intriguing.

How is this even possible? All I can do at this point is hope that I was wrong, and wait for America to be Great Again! In the meantime, I will do my best to spread kindness and tolerance wherever I go.

I love looking at all of your projects, including the new RSC project that will use your selvage collection. That looks so fun! Always glad to hear there is progress on your remodel. We are in the process of getting new appliances, so I have just finished cleaning out the old fridge, as the new one is coming this afternoon. Where does all that stuff I found in there come from?! Have a great week, Cathy! xoLIttle Penguin Quiltshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05963436433585505550noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4814262528756246837.post-41655910496813093412016-11-12T08:29:44.831-07:002016-11-12T08:29:44.831-07:00First of all Yea! on the big C results!

That's the best news. <br />I am in appalled at the outcome. <br />I am about connections not intolerance. <br />I did soothing things this week like knitting mindlessly on soft yarn, and stitching beads together. Both allowed me to see something beautiful grow in my hands. Thank you Kathy for making something beautiful and writing about it for us to share.
