It has been a couple of months. Last Thursday I took Julius to the vet. He was overdue for his yearly checkup and was also sick. Interestingly enough, we were at the vet the same week last year with the same issue. The vet thinks he may have allergies.
When we were leaving I noticed the kitty behind the desk, who was up for adoption. I could not leave him there. He is 5 months and had lived 4 months at the vets office. The pound took him to the vet when he was 4 weeks old. He was a very sick stray kitty. They had to shave to poor little guy bald to get rid of the ringworm and then his bits did not drop and they had to go in and get them.
So now we have a new kitty. We named him Charlie and he is settling in nicely.
"Charlie"
I have been taking classes at the local quilt shop. I was asked by a co-worker if I would like to go with her. So I signed up for the 8 week (1 night a week) Beginners Patchwork Class. It was good fun and I really enjoyed it. This past weekend I took a 1 day workshop on foundation piecing. I really like the foundation piecing, you can get really sharp points.
Me and my finished quilt top
I have to quilt it now. I am really good at piecing the tops, but not at actually finishing them into a quilt. I am up to 6 finished tops and 1 top in progress. Well now that I have written down, I must really try and finish one of these. Soon.
The blocks from my foundation piecing workshop. The blocks are currently 4 1/4 inches square and will be 3 3/4 inches square when finished.
