Tubs and stacks and cats and squirrels

Yes, I have many cats and LOTS of material. I do drape towels over any unprotected material to prevent too much cat hair collecting as they lay everywhere.

And I mean everywhere. MaggieMae has to be close to me. I try not to disturb her nap.

I quick trip to my LQS happily ended up with me bringing home 26 FQ's who needed a home. I also try to buy a neutral. I never know when I need some. A quilter's stash needs neutrals.

The temp outside is slowly melting the deep snow. We had freezing fog this morning. And a cloudy day. I felt the squirrels needed a treat so I gave them some apple slices. This young squirrel ate his apple in front of the window so I could take his picture.

9 patches for block exchange

These are what were mailed to the hostess for the scrappy 9-patch exchange.

6 1/2" 9-patch swap

Today I cut/washed and pressed 36 0ne yard cuts from my stash.
These will be cut into the 2 1/2" strips for the next strip swap.

And I will use some to make my scrappy (2 fabric) 6 1/2" nine patches.

The rest will be processed into my fabric bins that I totally love thanks to the wonderful Bonnie Hunter stash system.
