Such a sad day here.  We had to put our kitty Lowbacca asleep.  He was our little furry man.

He loved to pose.

He loved to sit on boxes.

He "helped" me in my craft room.

He loved sleeping on my pink fuzzy bathrobe, any pair of my pants that was laying on the floor, and the pile of warm clothes out of the dryer.  He loved red vines, and cereal milk.  He helped us make our sandwiches  when we made our lunch, we dubbed him the sandwich artist.  He loved sniffing the wind and sitting in a sunbeam and for some strange reason he loved watching the garbage man go by.  Franc and I will miss him terribly but his memory will live with us always.   

Well this is what I have been up to lately.  I have been sewing these little card/money holders. I found the pattern at the Sew Expo and thought those would be great to make and sell to raise money for the Relay for Life.   I am also making aprons, only have two of those done so far, and I need to get going on some jewelry, for the Relay and to sell in Mom's shop.  So much to do, fabric and beads will be flying!!  FYI - if you click the Relay for Life badge to the right of this post it will take you to a page where you can donate to the Relay for Life campaign. Every dollar and penny count!!

SNOW DAY

Went home early from work today because of the snow storm. It was wierd being the one sent home, I have always been the one to send people home. Jack cat hates the snow, I am sure he is thinking in his head " STOP SNOWING!!!"

WOW!! has it really been a year and a half sense i have posted anything!!??!!   Well lets see what has happened....Franc's daughter turned 18 and graduated from high school.  Changed jobs, now I play with big fiberglass stickers all day making airplane parts. Been doing some beading and a little quilting.  Learned kumihimo and now want to do lots more.  I think my New Years goal will be to keep up on my blog more!!

What I did for my 3 day weekend

This is what I did with my three day weekend. It is only they top. I want to free motion suns in the large square and stitch in the ditch arround everything else. I also made a pair of earings and a necklace, but had a uploading to the computer DUH moment and now the pictures are gone....

April and May BJP done!!

Well I finished May and took a good picture of April finally. 

Here is April.  It is kind of abstract.  I wanted to just follow the lines in the fabric and play off the colors in the fabric So here is what I came up with.

Here is May.  I just got done with the Quilters Puzzle quilt and was still in the black and red mood.
