Progress on my Dear Jane tote

003

Today I have done some progress on my Dear Jane tote.  Sewed the blocks together.  Took a long time because there were different sewingallowance on the blocks, so I had to trace lines to sew along.  So this is the front and the back of the tote.  I have been inspired by the Dear Jane tote that Hanne made some time ago, you can see it here.

And in between I have been handquilting on my Antique Sampler quilt.  With good help from Rusken.

A busy day in the sewing room

Today Rusken, Frida Cat and I have had a busy day in the sewingroom.

I have to be very careful about Rusken being so curious. The rotary cutter is put on top of the shelf after each time I have used it, and I have to stop sewing when he is nearby the needle. His paws are so fast chasing everything.

And he have found his special place in the sewing room.
On top of my little ironing board.
Look at this guy saying: "This is MY fabrics..........

.....and I protect them with my....................zzzzzZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ"

Frida Cat still have her special place. Looks like Rusken and Frida Cat has a understanding between them who owns the special places. And the both accept eachother being in the house. And they are both likes to stay with me in the sewingroom.

And I have finished the top of the Christmas hearts.
Quilting will be done next year.

The baking cover is also finished today.

Now I will relax with some more stitching on my Life is beautiful blocks. One done, 31 left.

a Ming Vase, purr.
Usually all will be forgiven.

Rusken learns to know the sewingroom



Today we have enjoyed some time in the sewingroom working on the Christmas heart table cloth. It is soooooooo fun looking at everything in this room, and I love spools of thread on the floor. And all the leftover cuttings from the fabrics. Think I am going to have a lot of fun in this room. Frida Cat have also joined us here, but she thinks I am too noisy at the moment. Purr purr from Rusken.

Saying for today:

I had been told that the
training procedure

with cats was difficult.
It's not.
Mine had me trained in two days.
