These are the spool blocks I stitched on Saturday. I’m coming to the end of the stack of pieces that I had printed and cut out for these little blocks. One more week of stitching and they will be all finished. Then I’ll decide how many more I want to add.
To that end, I pulled out a bunch of charms that will, for the most part, go with the fabrics I’ve already used. Now it’s just a matter of ironing them on to freezer paper and then sending them through the printer to print the half long 90-degree hexagon and the 1″ squares. I’ll have to print some more of the half hexagons on muslin as well.
It was a very rainy, windy day here Saturday. Today is supposed to be more of the same. I’m planning on spending most of the day playing with fabric and an idea that seems to be working its way to the top of my ideas list.
Lester is much more restrained about drinking water than Smudge but he gets water on his chin too — as this shot shows.
Smudge knows what to do on a rainy, windy day — curl up and look as gorgeous as possible so as to get as much attention as possible.





More great spools Cathi :0)
Does Smudge’s tactics work???? LOL

The kitties have the right idea, staying inside on a cold windy day! You will have a large quilt’s worth of your little spools at this rate.

Your spools look so cute! (So do your kitties!) I see you are changing the middle fabric! Most of the spools I’ve seen (including mine) are the same fabric. :0)
