Back To Crazy

I've been working on some needle felted brooches for Halloween.  I have them all finished now and will have photos over the weekend.

Now that I have those done, I'm ready to get back to crazy quilting.  These are 2 little Halloween blocks that I sewed up yesterday:

The little cross stitch pieces in the centers are from my Elegant Cross Stitch Sentiments For Crazy Quilting Book.  I stitched the little pieces first on cross stitch fabric and then pieced them into the blocks.

I've been little by little updating all the tabs at the top of my blog.  I updated my Kitty and Me on Etsy tab.  Not done yet but I'll get there.  And I updated the Crazy Quilt Resources tab with more links.  If you have any links that you want me to add, just email them to me and I'll get them listed over the weekend.  I still have a long way to go on the Crazy Quilt Resources so please check it regularly.

I also moved my Recipes list over to the side bar.  If you haven't checked out my recipes, please do so.  There's a lot of nice things to try.

Motifs from Elegant Cross Stitch Sentiments For Crazy Quilting

I have some finishes to share but I need to take photos of them so I'll post those tomorrow.  In the meantime, I thought I'd share the motifs that can be found in my new book, Elegant Cross Stitch Sentiments For Crazy Quilting:

Also, for anyone looking for my cross stitch patterns, they have found a permanent home in Jason's Etsy Shop.  Pam Kellogg's Cross Stitch Patterns can be found here.

Jason will continue to add my patterns as he has time.

Just a quick reminder, because this weekend was a busy one, that my new book has been released!  

Elegant Cross Stitch Sentiments For Crazy Quilting can be found at Magcloud!

In other news, here a new photo of Wrigley:

He's laying on the chair under the kitchen table.  My Simba used to lay here just like this.

Welcome Wrigley

Scott and I adopted a little 3 month old kitten today.  This is Wrigley (after Wrigley Field in Chicago):

He's rather frightened but he's so sweet and gentle!  We'll be introducing Nightmare and Lucy to him shortly.  Right now, he's resting on the sofa with Scott.  They're be more photos soon.  I didn't want to overwhelm him with too many flashes at the moment.

In other news, Elegant Cross Stitch Sentiments For Crazy Quilting is now available!  Yeah!!!!

I'll have more photos of my new baby in the next day or so.  I just want him to relax and settle down a little bit.

New Crazy Quilt Book Coming Soon!

I'm thrilled to announce that Jason has the cover for my upcoming Crazy Quilt book all ready so I thought I'd share it with you today.  Here it is, Elegant Cross Stitch Sentiments For Crazy Quilting:

We're looking at a release date around mid-May.  I'll keep ya'll posted on that!  And don't forget, the models that I did for the book are over at my Etsy shop!
