I got mail on Thursday from Uberstitch. I don’t know if you can tell from the picture, but it’s wrapped in a clothing pattern — a Vogue one, to be precise — and tied with a lovely black and white fabric bow.
Thank you so, so much — this is the fabric I needed for my Red Delicious apple core quilt, which I will be working on this weekend!!
It’s going to be slightly warmer today. I think we’re supposed to have a high of around 3. That will feel quite mild after what we’ve had and what we are, unfortunately, going right back into. Another 4 or 5 days of -25 or so wind chills. The long-range forecast for our winter sure was wrong — they had said milder and little precipitation. We’ve already had a ton of snow and it’s only January!
The kitties don’t care. They find comfy spots to snooze. Smudge in one of his crazy poses.
And, because I couldn’t resist, a close-up of him.
Lester, curled up in his kitty bed. I think it’s so cute that he’s holding his hind paw with his front one, all curled up like that.
Quilt Obsession 
I love that picture of Lester all rolled up in a circle. I have seen drawings of cats like that but had never seen a real one that way.

They look soooooo innocent when they’re asleep, don’t they? Mind you, your two seem to be a bit more well-mannered than my furbabies.

awwww I love how Smudge is sleeping.. we have had the a/c on for what seems weeks now, and Cosmo sleeps with his paws over his eyes.. he doesn’t like the a/c too much, but when it was 45C last week, he was asleep on the coffee table trying to cool down.. poor hairy critter.. Lissawhere its only going to be 40C today.. I hate summer, I think I might of said that more than once this year!

Yikes, Cathi – just reading about the temperatures you have had make me shiver — do bundle up and stay warm! We are expecting some cold days here, but not as cold as what you’ve been getting.
