I was thinking about possibly using a border when the 9-patch blocks of the stars are all done. This is almost unheard of for me as I next to never want a border. Then I remembered I had this:
I think it will work with these stars — and be a lot of fun. It will be bright and very colourful. That cat fabric has been waiting, I think, for just the right quilt top. This really is making me want to stitch those little star rectangles together as fast as I can!
Easter weekend was rather chilly here. It was even cold enough one night that the city issued a severe cold weather alert. I don’t think I can remember that ever happening this late in the year! This morning when I woke up and looked out, I was so shocked. Yesterday, we could see the grass on the roof garden. This morning? It was covered, yet again, in another blanket of snow. Thankfully, the sun is stronger and the snow had started to melt by mid-day. We may be in spring, but it sure doesn’t feel like it yet!
Lester enjoyed Easter — with his very own little chick. Notice the embroidered Easter egg on the chick. We couldn’t resist this when we saw it in the store. Perfect picture opportunity with a kitty! LOL
