The kittens I have right now are bigger than most I foster, but they are very scared little kitties. So I am working to socialize them. That requires quite a bit of time, since the goal is to get them to come over for pets and cuddles even when I don't have the food in my hand.
They're making progress, but still look at me like this some times- especially since they had never seen a camera before!
And sometimes hiding in the litter pan makes them feel safe. Poor kitties!
I did finish this quilt last month, so I am still finishing one a month for the year!! I didn't have a pattern for this, just a picture from somewhere. I didn't have much big enough for binding, so used a stripe on the bias, which I think looks great almost any time I do it.
I did a simple swirly stars faux pantograph- going back to my early free motion quilting days. It's not for show anyway, so the child who gets it won't care. The backing is a soft, kitty flannel !!
And of course, there's these two who I am delighted to spend any time I can with! Jon is too busy to sit still for a picture, unfortunately.
Plus I spend time in the gardens as often as I can, even though this time of year most things are done blooming, and it's all just maintenance. Plus, somehow all of my check-ups and such come at once. I had one two weeks ago, the cat has one today, then I have one next week and another the week after. Does this happen to you???
I am grateful for:
The many people resisting!
My new boss and new job.
The days I do get to sew a bit.
A nice day with friends last week!
Good sleep- when it comes.
