I'm trying to finish up this Quilt of Valor top (requested by a Navy Vet who wanted sea colors...) One more row to sew on and the top will be done! (this is from Bonnie Hunter's Scrappy Trip Around the World Pattern...a great way of using up scraps!)
And this bag from a recent magazine...I was looking for a project to use this fabric with the sheep knitting!
And while doing this I have to repeatedly change the water in the bathtub where the quilt above is soaking. It was pretty bad...(photo is much better than real life!) I've changed the water about a dozen times...let's just leave it at that. Fortunately it is supposed to be a good "quilt drying day" tomorrow too...
and on the Dobby front...he is doing a bit better. At least he can open his eye. We gave him three doses of him eye drops yesterday and one this morning. Even with two of us handling him using a blanket my arms and hands look like I fell from the sky into a blackberry hedge...I'm wearing gloves while washing the quilt!

Ooo, love the colors of the scrappy trips. How nice of you to honor a vet's request for his quilt. Sounds like Dobby's as bad at taking his medicine (so to speak) as my naughty Mr. Fang and he doesn't even have his front claws!! Dopey cats, don't they know we're just trying to help them?!!
Gorgeous colors on that Scrappy Trips quilt!!
What a sweet little pincushion. : )
Your description of your arms after giving the eyedrops creates a very vivid visual!!
Wow! Seems like you have had a bad time lately. I have made Bonnie's Scrappy Trip quilt and loved it. Love yours, too.
glad dobster is doing better but argh, sorry he's scratching you up. gorgeous quilt will be even more fabulous after you've cleaned it up.
Love your scrappy trip! What a cut pin cushion! I'm glad to hear that Dobbie is doing better. I'm just sorry that he's doing such a job on you. Can't wait to see the quilt after you finish washing it!
Nice job on the sea colors for a navy quilt of valor. It inspires me to start one for a vet!! Hope your new quilt gets cleaner. It is a cool design. Cats have their own way of doing things---never match what you need to do for them!!
