Guess The Theme

I started another Crazy Quilt purse project yesterday.  This one is a Christmas gift:

Would anyone like to take a guess as to what the theme will be on this one?  Leave a comment for me and stay tuned!

I have a few new cute cat photos to share today too.  First is Wrigley:

Just look at that tail!  It's 14 1/2 inches long!  He walks around with his tail dangling over his head.  I feel like I want to tie a bow on it!  LOL!!!

And here's Cotton with his little Halloween Beanie Baby:

I had a few of my little Halloween Beanie Babies out but Cotton kept stealing them.  The other night, I was laying on the bed watching TV and he hopped up on the bed and dropped one in my face!  I actually had to put my little beanies away and I went out and bought him one of his own.  Now, he carries that little orange bear around all day long!

Crazy Quilt Christmas Purse

I just finished sewing my Crazy Quilt Christmas Purse together.  All that's left to do is to sew the snap on:

I have a friend coming next week who asked me if she could see this one.  These are even prettier in person than they are in photos.  Hard as I try, the camera just doesn't capture the texture and sparkle of my bags.

If you haven't been following my progress on this purse, the poinsettia fabric at the top is from a vintage hankie that I bought at a flea market earlier this year.  All the various lace pieces are either antique or vintage.  I used a lot of pretty Kreinik metallic thread because Christmas is all about the sparkle.   And heaven knows, all that glitters is gold to me!

I'll leave you today with a cute cat picture!  Cotton and Wrigley laying in my white wicker rocking chair together:

Fall Bowl Fillers

Before I get to the bowl fillers, I thought I'd share my latest project:

My aunt asked me to make another pink cellphone pouch.  She wants this for a gift.  I started on it yesterday and will get back to it shortly.

And now onto the Fall Bowl Fillers:

These are new goodies from mom.  I can't believe what she all comes up with for our Etsy shop!

Finally for today, more cute cat pictures of my little Cotton Ball:

I just took this one a little while ago.  He's been sleeping in my chair next to me with his little arms up in the air.  Makes me laugh!

Harrison Fisher Purse Stitching Complete

I finished this Harrison Fisher Purse up early this morning.  Well, the stitching is complete:

The white embroidered flowers on the bottom right were already on the fabric.  I just embellished it with sequins, beads and that little vintage bird brooch.  I hope to get this sewn up later during the week.

In the meantime, my aunt asked me for another cellphone pouch so I started on that this morning too.  Will have photos to share soon.

For now, I have some cute cat photos of Cotton and Wrigley:

I can't use the flash with Cotton.  It must bother his eyes.  He's so cute and so little!  I don't think he weighs more than 4 1/2 pounds!  He's a little over 4 months old now.

And here's Wrigley:

He was 1/2 asleep when I took this.  Wrigley is a little over 6 months old now and just look at the size of him:

He's not fat.  He's just fluffy!  He's going to be a big boy!
