As always, between larger projects, I like to stitch up a couple of little things. I always gravitate to my little crazy quilt cat dolls. I stitched this one up the other day:
And this little one is what I'm working on now:
They never really look like much until I get them sewn together!
Anyway, at this moment, I don't have to go anywhere today. Unless mom calls and needs me to run uptown for something, I plan to sew these 2 pieces together today:
I'm thinking pillows but we'll see.

Little Girls In Yellow Roses Stitching Completed
This bright and cheerful crazy quilt block will most likely be sewn into a pillow:
I just love the little Victorian girls in the roses! I was looking at it yesterday and thinking it would make a pretty pillow so I'll add a green border and some pretty lace. I'm hoping to have some sewing time tomorrow.
Here is the crazy quilt seam embroidery:

Little Girls In Yellow Roses
Sandie told me that I must stitch in my sleep! LOL!!!! Stitching is therapy for me as it is for many people. I make sure I have plenty of time for it every day. And I don't always sleep well so it's a good way to spend my early morning hours! Here's my newest piece:
I've always loved the Victorian images of the little girls in the flowers! The lace appliques are a bit bright but I'll soften them with beadwork.
My dad's surgery is today so please keep him in your thoughts.

White Cat In A Rose Garden
My newest Crazy Quilt piece features a vintage image of a white cat in a rose garden:
I haven't decided yet on how I'll finish this. I'm going to stitch a few more pieces that are the same size and then we'll see what I do with them.
Here are the embroidered seam treatments for this piece:
