A Very Purple Patchwork of the Crosses Block

Now that I know the purple squares are going to work with all these blocks, it’s time to start adding them to the blocks that have a lot of purple in them already. Adding the cream long hexagons around each block takes longer than the squares so over the next few evenings I’m going to be getting more of the cream hexagons ready to add.

The back:

No wonderful pictures from Mr. Quilt Obsession’s day on Tuesday. It rained and rained. The wind was unbelievable Tuesday afternoon. It’s only in the past couple of years that I’ve noticed wind storms equal migraines for me.

However, there is a nice picture of Lester. He was happily dozing on the couch, although he doesn’t like it when Mr. Quilt Obsession is gone. He meows a lot at the door until Mr. Q.O. gets home. I’m convinced Lester knows when he’s walking down the hall from the elevator as he sometimes paces around the door.


One of Smudge’s paws.


He was also relaxing on the couch. I think they’re starting to get well into cold weather hibernation mode.

  1. Got busy yesterday and didn't get to all my favorite blog reads! There's my guys…all cuddly and cute and snuggled in for an early winter.Our weather has turned nearly 20 degrees cooler too….not that bad just yet but I do feel it in the bones..perhaps Lester and Smudge do too. They will be thankful for those fur coats. LOL

  2. I just want to reach through the computer screen and pet those velvety noses. I have adverse reactions to barometric pressure changes too: not a migraine but pounding sinus aches that reverberate down in my teeth and affect my middle ear stability. I can highly empathize.

  4. Your kitty pics make me realize how much I miss having one around the house, Cathy. I know you're just doing this to tempt me.You can't go wrong with shades of purple and yellow. As complimentary colors, they'll always go well together. Gorgeous block!
