I put my needle down though for lots of this! She had a day of rest and vigorous self grooming yesterday - as you can see her fur is now fluffy and soft. So far this morning her playful side is starting to emerge, she and Tucker had their first playtime together exploring an empty box. A few little hisses but nothing to worry about.
Here is a sneak peek showing the beautiful quilting done by Cindy at Tops to Treasures. This is my 2 UFOs for 1 quilt with a rail fence top from an online swap used as backing. It's beautiful every way you look!
Today I predict more of the same with Christmas decorating mixed in with football watching. I'm a little nervous about the tree and a kitten so we will start with no ornaments and go from there. I can't help but laugh at this pic I saw on facebook last week!
I'm linking up to Slow Stitching Sunday@Kathy's Quilts.
Love the cartoon!

Pretty cat and quilts I love! the pic of the cats singing. I own a schnauzer, he is cat like for a dog. He uses his front paws like a cat and loves chasing anything that rolls across the floor.He is cuddled up in the chair with my husband right now. He also likes to get covered with a quilt when he sleeps. He sure has filled our empty nest. Your cat seems to be blessed to have a great home also.
ReplyDeleteShes beautiful and so lucky to have found a new home! An early Christmas present!
ReplyDeleteLove that picky lolol
ReplyDeleteI once had 17 rescue kittens in over Christmas and took the tree down in the end lol
All 17 would run from end of the room to the other at night, they sounded like a marauding army, chasing baubles and dragging garland about!
It was so funny to hear from upstairs and see the catastrophe each morning lol
They were an absolute joy having said that but after the tree camw down for the third time, I put it outside lol
spoil sport that's me lol
Elsa is a cutey and such lovely markings, Id indulge her too lol
Stitching slowly has a lot going for it!
Your quilt pictures are gorgeous and the kittens made me smile :)
ReplyDeleteTwo quilts in one. Hard to beat that. Hope you can get back to your stitching soon. The cat is just too cute to ignore though.
ReplyDeleteLove that cartoon! I also like the Christmas-y rail fence! I am determined to do a Christmas quilt one of these days ... and a rail fence might just be the pattern I choose!
ReplyDeleteI'm still laughing at your kitties cartoon :*) Love your new baby - she's adorable!!! I so wish we were in a position to have a new baby kitten. Gypsy would never allow it and I would fear for its life! And after she leaves us, I think we will need a little break :*) But someday I will have another little baby kitty :*) Enjoy yours - they are precious!
ReplyDeleteThe perfect storm, a kitten and a Christmas tree. The first year I had Cricket she climbed the tree, got her hind paw twisted in the pre wired light strands and from the howls I thought she was being electrocuted. After unplugging the tree, getting her untangled and receiving several scratches from rescuing her she was fine but didn't go near the tree again. That was three years ago and she still gives the Christmas tree a wide berth. P.S. Love the quilt and the quilting.
ReplyDeleteElsa is a sweetie. Thank you to you and your hubby for rescuing her from the cold. She is a lucky kitty! I hope you will show your quilt (both sides) when you have the binding completed. Happy Holidays!
ReplyDeleteThat is an awesome way to spend the day. Beautiful kitty and beautiful quilt.
ReplyDeleteOh, Elsa is so cute! Love the Christmas quilt you show. So many different hollidays fabrics.
ReplyDeleteLooks like this little kitten has truly settled into your home. And the quilt looks lovely.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a lovely way to join in with Slow Stitchin' Sunday!
