I've posted alot of photos of my Lucy. Mostly because she's facinated with the camera and will sit still long enough to have her picture taken. So Scott takes alot of photos of her.
I do have 3 other cats and I want to share their pictures with you as well.
This is Simba laying in the chair here by my computer. He'll be 9 years old the end of this month.
Yes, he's fat and mushy and just as sweet as can be. He's very gentle, doesn't have an aggressive bone in him and so shy that when the doorbell rings, he hides under the bed!
I named him Simba because when he was a baby, his little profile reminded me of the baby lion in The Lion King movie.
Scott says he's not the brightest crayon in the box and that is true. Be he's so sweet and so beautiful and he lays next to me when I stitch and I love that.

Hot Pink Peacock Continues
This is how the block looks as of now. What you see was done on Friday. I didn't get to working on this yesterday but I will today.
The rhinestone piece that I have will go on today along with the "tail feathers". And we'll see what else I come up with!

Pets and Hurricane Katrina
Sadly, in disaster situations such as with Hurricane Katrina, animals and pets are often left behind, to fend for themselves.
Many of you already know how I feel about animals. I will never understand how anyone could leave their pets behind but I suppose in the chaos, the fear and the panic, I guess it happens.
The Humane Society of The United States has launched a massive effort to rescue pets and animals left behind during the evacuation. Last night alone they rescued 130 animals in Mississippi and I'm sure they will continue with their efforts until they've saved all that they could find.
Many donations are going towards helping the people and that's great. I'm all for that. But my donations at this particular time will be going to the HSUS to help them with the animals.
If you would like to help them, here is the website for the The Humane Society Of The United States
There is a link on their website to make a donation now using a credit card or I'm sure you can send them a check.
Thank you,
Pam
P.S. You may already know that this is my Lucy. She was a rescue, not from a disaster situation, but from our backyard. We have no idea where she came from.

Embellishing The "In The Pink Peacock"
I've started the embellishments on this peacock block. I embroidered the peacock and the feather, added some various yellow daisy trims along with a piece of hot pink grosgrain ribbon with white polka dots and did a little seam embroidery.
I have a really pretty vintage rhinestone pin for the tail but I need my husband to cut the pin-back off so I can sew it on for the tail and make it lay flat. I'm sure he'll have time to do that over the weekend.

In The Pink Peacock Block
I'll be starting on this block later today. It'll be another peacock block and this one will be a Christmas gift.
The black is crushed velvet, the floral print is a cotton, the soft pink is a silk print, the white is moire taffeta and the hot pink is a sheer fabric with glittered floral sprays. I used white quilters cotton behind it. The lace is vintage. It must have once been on a pillowcase because it has a cut off cotton flange which made it nice and easy to sew into the seam.
Stay tuned to see how this block develops!
