Okay, so I had to get organized to do this one:
Finished and being quilted: Blue Betty (log cabin--king size)
Works in Progress:
1. Firefly (paper pieced)
2. Spring Flower Sampler (from the shop hop last month)
3. Flip Flops (applique)
4. Home is Where the Heart Is (BOM)
5. A Kitten's Tale (BOM)
6. Checkerboard Flowers (BOM)
7. Spring Chickens (applique)--needs quilting
Wish List:
1. Let Sleeping Cats Lie
2. Dutch Treat (from Fons & Porter magazine)
3. Peaches & Dreams (freebie from the internet)
4. Stars & Stripes (applique)
5. Funky Monkey (applique using sock monkey fabric)
6. Sunny Trio (wall hanging/table runner)
7. BQ2 (patchwork)
8. Red Hot Dots (patchwork)
9. Olive Rose/Siena (large scale prints--haven't picked which pattern yet)
10. Garden Chain (patchwork)
11. Friendship Block (bed-sized for my friend)
12. Stars & Trees (second one of these--flannel scraps)
13. Little House in the Big Woods (landscape challenge quilt)
14. 6-pointed stars
15. Circle de Lune (patchwork)
16. Sundae's Best Quilt
17. Checkerboard 9-patch
18. Bed sized quilt for my son (OSU fabric)
19. Crayons
20. Flamingoes in Paradise (applique)
21. Dream Machines
The ones on my wish list are all patterns that I have some of the fabric, but not all of it. A few use leftovers from previous quilts. So many quilts, so little time. Will I live long enough?

2. Get an idea for quilt for 15 yr.old GS. Anyone??
Am new here but......how 'bout one made with cars or sport he loves? Or pick one of his other interests and do an alternating block of plain and special choise one. Probably wouldn't outgrow that one in a hurry.

WIP –
1. Kitties dancing with the stars – needs binding, a hanging sleeve and label then done! King size
2. Puss in the Center kid quilt – FMQ this now
3 Dragon and Tiger Mariners Compass - on-going handquilting project – figuring it will be a WIP for about a year longer. Queen size
4. Batik Block swap - sent the blocks in just waiting for the return ship date now. I know I want a bedsize quilt so need to wait to see what I get to make additional blocks for it to measure up.
5. Felines of Fall maple leaf block quilt - just pulled the fabs out of my stash this past weekend to start cutting this weekend. Destined to be a gift for my wonderful MIL. (yes she truly is wonderful!)
6. Harley T-shirt quilt – yet another one. I think there will always be a Harley T-shirt quilt in my WIP piles.

1. Castles in the Air - quilt top completed needs to be sandwiched and quilted lost interest in this quilt because I thought it was ugly due to my poor fabric choices. However it may be a good project for my new longarm and quilting it may give me a new, and hopefully better, perspective. If not, it will be donated.
2. Scrappy Log Cabin Cats collecting scraps for this, have some log cabin blocks assembled. Need to do some more sewing on this one.
3. Norwegian Forest Cats - blocks all assembled needs to be made into a quilt top, still contemplating layout. Needs all different size sashing pieces because blocks are all different sizes. This will be a wallhanging.
In the Que as of right now with patterns picked out and stash dedicated to it (subject to change without notice!)
1. Sawtooth cats
2. Asian print pineapple
3. Sampler
4. Blue scrap quilt using Quiltville pattern
5. Brother Bear Sister Sun quilt
6. The Ultimate Cat quilt – My own design. I only have some blocks picked out for this using Silverlining originals paper piecing from her Meowsy Wowsy collection. No fabric dedicated to it but know I have suitable fabs in my stash for some of the blocks. I want to make this at least a queen size quilt
