my husband makes cat scratching furniture and i help by cutting the chipboard on a big saw, to all the different sizes he neads from great big sheets, fortunately we have a table saw to make it easier, I also look after my mum who is 92 years old and only 1 leg who has had MS since I was a little baby. I have to do everything for her except feed her, so as you can see life is pretty full, if I wake up during the night I often spend a hour or so on my quilt so it is a slow process but so far I am really happy with it, I know I have made mistakes and I will have to hand sew some of the seems on the back as the back is stitched on at the same time as the front and batting. and I have missed a few spots where the backing has moved, but I am learning from my mistakes and am making less now I know to check more often before I put the next row on. I am of to bed as it is night time here in australia so good night all talk again soon hopefully with some pictures

took a little break from the quilt this morning (2.30 AM) I woke up and decided to use a piece I picked up in a lot of fabric bits & pieces I got from the op shop the centre is just a bit of curtain I think, I will post it as soon as it is finished, in about an hour or so.
