Quilting Catch Up

 Let me catch you up on some things from the sewing room.  I finally finished my jelly roll rug.  I think it turned out pretty well.

Mabel used her pregnant girth to help flatten it out.

And I was challenged to take a picture of my sewing table exactly as it was to post on Sew Sweet's facebook page.  Here was my photo.  I'm working on an Adventure Sling Bag.

Earlier in the week, I did some quilting.  This baby quilt is now finished and ready to be gifted to a baby coming in the fall.

And Waddles got quilted!  I still think this might be one of the cutest quilts I've made.  I'm planning to hang this above my piano in the spring.  I have discovered that having a larger quilt hanging there helps absorb the sound when I have a "pounder" at the bench for lessons.  And, it's just stinkin' cute!

And we're still waiting on kittens................

Still laying down to eat which Esme finds rude and unlady like.  

Willow has been lending support (although there are some who believe this is just a ruse to get to spend time inside when it's hot.).

And the hubs has been working on a new project.  This is his first completion.  One wonders why the hog farmer chose a cow as his first subject, but it's really cute, so I'm keeping that thought to myself.

Stashbusters, an online quilting group I'm in, is having a stay at home retreat this weekend, so maybe I'll have lots more show and tell soon!

P.S.  I typed this post early and have an update..............Mabel is now a mother.  She has four beautiful kittens!  I was working in the sewing room late last night and when cleaning up a little before 10 noticed some spots on my cutting mat (never fear, it's been thoroughly sanitized).  I started hunting for Mabel and found her on the rug in front of the kitchen sink.  We moved her to a nice padded box in the basement for the night.  Here is your first peek at the kittens!
