Ready for my quilting Bee meeting

The first block of "Flower Penny Garden" is prepared for the stitching.

We also were able to remove the desk from Ruby's room so part of tomorrow will be spent getting the machine in a better position for quilting. I picked up 9 yards of batting from Hobby Lobby at 40% off and will be able to get some practice charity quilts done.

I received some pantographs that I ordered last week. I am thinking these will help get the movement of the machine into my head and will be good practice.

 On the kitten front.... He is getting braver every day.

He decided to join Chipper on the top self of the climbing pole. Scotty also has made friends with the dog and drinks from Comets water dish. (I haven't been able to get a good picture yet, but the dish is way bigger than the kitten.)

Hope that you are having a great week!

What's happening...

My DH finally got his roll top computer desk. Yea! Now we are in the process of getting the old desk out of  Ruby's way. A friend is picking up the old desk on Wednesday. I can hardly wait until then, so I will have room to play more with Ruby.

 I have been working on this UFO. The six blocks were purchased at a quilt shop that closed at least five years ago. They were leftover BOM kits and I added some fabric to get the quilt big enough for a kids charity quilt.

This block arrived yesterday from Primitive Gatherings 

It is Lisa Bongean's  Summer block of the week "Flower penny garden". It is a mystery with twelve blocks and will be a big quilt with borders that will be revealed at the end of the summer. 

Scotty is getting more used to the rest of the family. He and Chipper are now getting along and are playing cat games. We still separate them when the baby needs a nap. It is getting harder to snap pictures of him as he is constantly moving.
