Kitties and Charity Stuff.

 How much I love my kitties! I have been sitting on this to do my sewing this morning because,
 Meggie took my seat!
I have been busy making the blocks and today I am putting the quilt top together.
 At the cloth doll club  A.C.D.A (the link is on the right hand side of my blog), on Saturday I came home with several things to use for charity, These books with volumes to 31
 These blocks have been made already. I will have fun making up the rest and these will be turned into comfort blankets for this charity,
Blankets of Love.

 Tilli in the hallway. Lovely and cool.
I also have been given these two large boxes full of fabric with the promise that they will be used for charity. (A friend of a friend donated these she is downsizing). There are some cottons, (quilt blocks and sashings will be made with those). Some ribbing I will use on the charity dresses (T Shirt tops with an added skirt) and a couple of larger fabrics I will use for the Angels for the Forgotten Charity on the comfort blankets as backing. Thank you so much for trusting me with this.

Next Project.

 This is the next quilt in the making. All fabrics have been washed and ironed this morning so now I am getting them ready into blocks.
The Tweety hearts will have the blocks facing this way,
 The Sylvester blocks will face this way. Sylvester faces are hand drawn using fabric permanent pens, washed, tested and colourfast. Picture found on the internet.
All the middle pinwheels will be going into my pinwheel box for a baby charity make later on.
I have some large Tweetys that will be appliqued on top of the quilt when it is all assembled.
