I hope all my friends that celebrate Easter and Passover had a nice celebration with their families.
We didn't have anyone coming over to celebrate so my day was completely different from the usual run around cleaning and cooking kind of day.
I went to the grocery store as we finally decided we needed some kind of Easter dinner,
but mostly I worked in the yard on Saturday and I sewed on Sunday.
I also finished reading the first book of the Hunger Games.
I can't wait for book 2!!
I had to trim a quilt so I could put the binding on.
Look at who wanted to help!
Oh Jack!
He *has* to be wherever I am.

I did get it trimmed and the binding made but not attached.
I used the same creepy cat fabric you see on the back for the binding.
I am going to have some left over if anyone is in need of some creepy cat, flannel binding!
Just LMK!
I did get the binding attached to the water quilt so now I can begin the hand stitching of that one.
I need to have that done by the time I go to Raleigh to visit DD2 since it is for her
and it would be a great summer quilt.
As I was looking for the binding I came across some 6" squares I had cut and thought,
"oh why not?"
So I sewed them into a cute little baby quilt.
I even found some Nemo fabric to use for the back!
I will probably put it up in my ETSY when it is all finished.
It was nice to have something done and ready to hand off to Liz today.
I will leave you with a few pics of Autumn.
She loves to go where it is warm and I will frequently find her curled up under my Ott light.
I didn't think it gave off much heat but apparently it must!
This one is my favorite.
Have a wonderful Monday!

PS. I have decided the big reveal for what I am working on will come the last week in April.
I hope you will all play along with me!
Curious yet?

Nice relaxing time for you, wonderful! I couldn't put down the hunger games series, so good! Not sure if I will see the movie yet though. Your cats are so cute! I am curious about your project too
I am sure looking forward to your big reveal!!
Very curious!! The baby quilt is adorable...and your kitty is too :-)
I purchased the Hunger Games book for my Nook Tablet, but haven't started reading it yet...and I want to see the movie. Guess I need to get started!
I need to make some stuff for my neglected ETSY shop...soon maybe;)
Love the pictures of your calico cat! I used to have one I called Blossom. She was a good cat.
Finished up the 3 Hunger Games books. Read the last one in a day.
Sounds like you had a calm Easter :)
One of my cats (Bits), loves to be under the lamps too! We call her Bits because she is just a 'bit' of a cat.
The first book of the Hunger Game series did disturb me in that it was written for Teens. However she is such a wonderful writer I had to read all three books. Now I want to see the movie. I love your cats and hope to fine one for myself soon.
