MAGPIE'S MUMBLINGS

A blog about my interests, which include fabric landscapes and various and assorted other artsy pursuits and sometimes known to contain mumblings of a random nature.

Starting another

 Of course you know that I'm starting anther landscape and have already spent hours stitching this part of it...a form of sashiko stitching.  Alas not ready for a photo quite yet so you're going to have to put up with yet more mumblings.  Operating on very little sleep the past couple of nights due to the RC having come down with some sort of plague.  Hopefully he keeps it to himself!

- If you happen to like cats, perhaps these two links that take you to a free PDF pattern will intrigue you (and if you aren't a cat person, have a peek anyway because it's awwww-worthy).  Go HERE and HERE.

- THIS is a really pretty project.

- And so is THIS.

- THIS would be a great use for some leftover denim jeans.

Today's quote...

    1. I love that quilt too, but I won't be making it. I like cats but can't have one because the RC has developed an allergy.

  2. I hope Jack feels better soon, and wonder if it's this pesky small virus going around. The quotation is so good, particularly when someone puts on a brave face, not to assume their life is easy.

    1. At first he was thinking it was a reaction to the covid booster but I know it's more than that. When he gets this sort of thing it always settles in his chest and wants to stay there. Lots of TLC...and Buckley's.

    1. I'd feel a whole lot better if I could get a decent sleep and live in hope for tonight. One problem with a small apartment, there's no place to go when you can hear the other one coughing.

    1. I hope he does too! I went out and stocked up with meds so will keep shoveling those into him and hope it doesn't get any worse.

  5. I hope your DH is feeling better, and that you don't get that bug. Love the Tilda pattern! I've saved it, it may be an RSC project next year. Thanks for sharing!

    1. I'm hoping I don't get it too. Ooooh - I hope you DO use that pattern because I'd love to see it.

  6. Cat quilt pattern is a winner. I can see a quilt jacket with that cat on it. The denim table runner has a cozy casual vibe.

    1. The RC seems to be improving but still has a cough. So far, touch wood, he's kept it to himself.

  8. I hope the RC recovers very soon and as you have said keeps it to himself. I really like the denim runners.....

    God bless.

    1. I like pretty much everything that involves denim so that runner caught my eye.

Thank you so much for leaving comments! I appreciate you taking the time out of your busy life to talk to me. It's wonderful to know that someone is actually reading my mumblings and even more fun if I can connect with you and visit your blog.
