Easy Street clue #1 is finished.

A very easy clue#1.
So I am starting this mystery with two colorways in mind.
I do not know if I will keep this up. Just saying....

Below is a photo of one corner way up high in my cutting room. A big container of nothing but 3 1/2" 4 patches. The date on the box is August 2010. I was in an exchange on the HGTV website.
 Hummm..... need to find a use for these!!!!

Two of Bonnie Hunter's fans wanted cat beds. I have mailed out three beds already. These two were a special order. The buyer wanted white fleece. Guess she has a light colored cat. I finished them up today...
cute uhu?

Yesterday I finished quilting the quilt made from my deceased son-in-law's flannel shirts. He was no longer married to DD#1 yet he was still a part of our lives. So I made this quilt for his widow.

It is all quilted, labeled and bound.

I'm back...so sorry for the delays in postings

Things have been so out of the ordinary here. Some very happy things and some very sad things.
Sad thing is the passing of my young 39 year old nephew. Much too young and sweet to have been taken so early. Another sad thing was the return home of my brother Michael for the funeral. He spent a week here and it was so sad to see him leave. He has always lived away from the rest of us. Out of 8 children he always had the itchy feet. The rest of us stayed around close to each other if not too close in our daily lives. And my hubby also lost his oldest sister. He also comes from a family of 8 children. But he is at the other end of the eight kids than me. I was first in my family. He has two younger sisters but he is the youngest boy.

One really good thing is DH is almost back to his normal wonderfully charming self. He credits pharmaceuticals. And says he has a new appreciation for being "normal" again. He is doing really sweet things...

• like driving home with two chocolate dipped ice cream cones on a 95 degree day.

They were melted but it was the thought that counted!!!

• We are going out and playing music again. What a joy. What fun! I even clipped off all my fingernails and he put new Martin Marquis strings on my guitar. My fingers remember the chord positions but boy do my finger tips hurt!!!!

• And he also surprised me with this great old sewing box: 

 It is sooo cute and I do not see a single nail in it. 

It matches my oak roll top desk.

 And more shirts arrived from my deceased son-in-law. (former SIL)
These are much better to work with than that t-shirt quilt I made this Spring. I think I can squeeze a few quilts from the stack and one will go to his current widow. The others will go to his children...blood and step...no distinction in loving them.
I have always wanted to make a Carpenter's Star quilt. Here are some blocks made already. This is a fun block to make!!!!

•  And some kitty pics for you all

It is very rare for my cats to be together in one place for very long. DH says look three on the bed so I ran in and took a picture. Then the battery died in my camera. Figures...at least I did get one picture.
