Bottom middle -

Bottom right -

Close-up of the middle -

And upside-down -

 

I think this is one of my favorite versions - 

 

The BOLD really worked out nicely - ;))

 

 

 

Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew - 

 

Something new -

 

 

First off - 

 

Before you ask - 

I'm working on it - LOL -

 

I didn't get much sewing done today - 

 

And I have two more seams to go - 

On my Upstairs/Downstairs - Wild Things - 

Then I need to press it - 

Before I can take some more photos - 

So - in the meantime - 

I want to show you something new -

 

Or I should say - 

 

SomeONE new - ;))

 

Meet Buja - 

 

 

 

One of my daughter's friends rescued this cutie from the talons of an owl - 

 

As her friend said - she was almost owl "take-out"  -

So - my daughter volunteered to bring her to our house - 

 

Until she and her friend could find the kitten a "forever" home - 

 

Where owls DON'T live - LOL - 

She named her - "Buja" - 

 

Pronounced - BOO-hah - 

 

Spanish for "Owl" - 

Here she is in a small palm tree in the back yard - 

 

Waiting to pounce on Echo - 

 

Then playing with Echo - 

 

Touching noses within three hours of meeting each other - 

 

Which might have set a record somewhere - 

 

And sound asleep on the couch - 

She's a little cutie - 

And she doesn't stress Echo out - 

At all - 

So I think she can stay - ;))

Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew - 

 

 

P.S.  The other little kitten that we had for a while - completely stressed out Echo.

Since Echo was here first - that kitten went to live with Grandson #2 - ;))

Wild Things - Webbing - Part 2 -

 

 

The rows have been webbed - 

 

For my Upstairs/Downstairs - Wild Things - 

 

 

Now all I have left to sew - 

 

Are the vertical seams - 

 

Then I'll have a top - ;))

 

 

 

Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew - 

Wild Things - Webbing - Part 1 -

 

 

The blocks were all laid out - 

 

For my Upstairs/Downstairs - Wild Things - 

 

And re-arranged umpteen times - 

 

Until I came up with this - 

 

 

Then I made my piles of "rows" - 

 

With the bottom row on top - 

 

And began webbing the top - 

I still have a ways to go - 

But I'm getting there - ;))

Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew - 

 

Backstep -

 

 

Before I play with the layout - 

 

For my Upstairs/Downstairs - Wild Things - 

 

I wanted to start webbing my Upstairs/Downstairs - Pastel Brights - 

 

Since Linda - Art In Search - has hers laid out and ready to web - 

I need to catch up - LOL - ;))

 

Here - the blocks are all in "row" order - 

 

Starting with the bottom row - 

And on the ironing board - 

Ready to sew together -

In progress -

 

I'm almost there - 

 

But when I finish - 

 

I'll save the "reveal" - 

 

Until Linda posts hers - 

 

Then we can compare - ;))

 

 

 

Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew - 

 

Wild Things - Last two sets -

 

 

Of blocks are done - 

 

For my Upstairs/Downstairs - Wild Things - 

 

 And a collage of all eight sets - 

 

This one is going to be fun to lay out - 

 

I see two Dark Yellow streaks - 

 

Two Light Yellow streaks - 

 

Two Black Spotted ones - 

 

The "streaks" will be separated a bit - 

 

One going "Upstairs" and one going "Downstairs" - 

 

And the last two can be "fillers" - ;))

Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew - 

Wild Things - Two more sets -

 

 

Of blocks are done - 

 

For my Upstairs/Downstairs - Wild Things - 

 

 

The next set is ready to sew - 

 

And the last set is sewn into tubes - 

 

So I should get these two sets done tomorrow - ;))

 

 

 

Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew - 

 

Wild Things - continued -

 

 

Some more blocks sets - 

 

For my Upstairs/Downstairs - Wild Things - 

 

 

With more to come - 

 

These are like potato chips - 

I can't make just one - ;))

Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew - 

Wild Things - First 2 sets -

 

 

I got the first two sets of blocks made - 

 

For my Upstairs/Downstairs - Wild Things- 

 

 

Then I cut the rest of the strata - 

 

And am working on another set of blocks - 

 

I think that this one will be different - 

 

From the others that I have made -

 

The fabrics are much "bolder" - 

So it should be interesting - ;))

Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew - 

 

Wild Things - A little cutting -

 

 

I got three sets of strata cut - 

 

For the first batch of blocks - 

 

For my Upstairs/Downstairs - Wild Things - 

 

And I got them sorted - 

So now I can start making blocks - ;))

 

 

 

Talk to you later - gotta go- gotta sew - 

Wild Things - Strata #7-8 -

 

 

The last two strata are sewn - 

 

For my Upstairs/Downstairs - Wild Things - 

 

 

And all eight -

 

Pressed nice and neat - 

 

In no particular order - 

Now to get them cut into segments -

 

And make them into blocks - ;))

Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew - 

Wild Things - Strata #5-6 -

 

 

 

And another two strata are sewn -

The first two strata are sewn - 

 

For my Upstairs/Downstairs - Wild Things - 

 

This should be an interesting one - 

 

Another experiment -

 

Since this set is a little different - 

 

We'll see what happens - ;))

 

 

 

Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew - 

Wild Things -
