Pets on Proust

Pets on Quilts on Proust

Over at Lily Pad Quilting it's time for the annual Pets on Quilts party. In the "cats on quilts" category, this is one of my quilts, "Black and White and Read all Over," with my sister's well-read cats, Olive and Wilma. And a little Marcel Proust for good measure!












Wilma


"The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new lands but seeing with new eyes."





Olive

"Let us be grateful to people who make us happy; they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom."

Many thanks to my sister for rising to the occasion and working for two days to get these two "spontaneous and natural" photos!

Middling Along


I'm back in the middle of Rose Boll this week. Aren't these fabrics gorgeous? I just love them! Click any photo to see them all full sized.


I have to say, it is already looking better than I dared to dream. When I bought the fabric last fall, I admit I felt some guilt about it. Couldn't I have made do with what I had?


Now I have no doubt that it was the right call to buy all the extra reds. The deep reds are needed to hold their own with all the florals.


And, I certainly didn't want to skimp on florals!

The mix of prints is so much fun. This time the pictures really do not do it justice.

Anyway, the middles are all done. The sawtooth edges are next!
