I received a link to The Quilter's Muse website from Cris. She thought I would be interested in seeing a antique crazy quilt that was recently posted. And yes, I'm always thrilled to see online articles about old crazy quilts! Anyway, here is the direct link if you would like to check it out. Thank you very much Cris!
If anyone else has found any cool sites or articles about old needlework that they would like me to see or share here, please drop me an email and I'll post the links to the sites here so that everyone can enjoy them.

New Chat Board
Kim & Janet set up a new chat board at Yuku for stitcher's who enjoy stitching my designs. If you would like to stop by and chat with other girls who enjoy my projects, you can find it at
Kitty & Me Stitchers.

Novelties In Crocheting
These antique patterns are from a women's magazine called, "The Designer". That was published in the early 1900's. I've scanned them at 300 dpi so they should be very easy to read and follow. Click on one of the images to go to my Flickr site where you can download the large versions of the patterns:
Enjoy!
Enjoy!

Redwork Comfort Cat Continues.....
I didn't spend a lot of time stitching yesterday but I did add a few beads to this little Comfort Cat Doll:
I expect to have time to stitch on it later today.
I also want to mention that Sharon B. has moved her blog. You can now find her here. If you've never been to Sharon's blog, it's a must read! Do pay her a visit!

All Done!
More rain yesterday so I stitched and completed the Silhouette Lady block:
I wish you could hold this and feel how heavy it is from all the beads and do-dads! Anyway, I want to thank Janet for the red crystal heart that I used above the image. It's the perfect do-dad for that little corner! Thank you Janet!
When I finished stitching on that, I started another Comfort Doll to send to Pat:
No, I wasn't thinking Christmas or Valentine's Day! I was thinking Redwork! I thought it would be a fun color combination and I think I'm still in red mode after doing the Silouette Lady! Anyway, I'm going to stencil some ivy leaves on my living room walls this afternoon and then I'll stitch on the cat some more.
On another quick note, the CQ Christmas ornament kits are sold out. I'll work up a few more when I have some free time.
