What Have I Been Doing?

Image
 Well, I've been up to quite a LOT  (sewing wise). I tried out paper piecing, finally, for two Fallout themed wall hanging:     I made a few thread catchers for my two machines (only took a photo of one though).     I got my tattoo finished (the Ooogie Boogie wall hanging was given to my tattoo artist) I also started on an experimental piece which broke my brain trying to figure out how to do it in both/either Quilting Assistant and/or Electric Quilt. You can take a look at the guide I made to and what I have done so far.   Here is a cute pic of my kitty to make it all okay.

Inspiration from the Pain

There have been a few slow days at work here... so I have had a little time to design a bit. I actually got a bit of (granted morbid) inspiration from a post on a wonderful facebook group I am in. The person made a quilt square for her cat who passed away. I have recently had to deal with such heart ache and it inspired me to crate my own. I hope to make one for each of my furry friends who have passes one. Right now I will show you the two I have gotten some work done on: Dot RIP 201?-2017 Mesha 201?-2018  They are still works in progress. I think I may try and find a different picture of Mesha to work from that might read a little easier in quilt form. Working on them was pretty emotional for me, well, more emotional that I thought it would be. I miss them both very much. I hope to add my other four childhood cats to the mix some day, but that will probably mean I will have to scan some pictures in. Who knows, maybe this could be a service I could offer? Do you think...
