Kitty Kozy Pattern and Tutorial
Fall has arrived in Alaska, and I can tell you, the cats are on me like Barnacles! I have to pry them off of me, anytime I move, since I am clearly their only source of heat and succor in the Frozen Arctic North that is our living room ;0
So, I made them these Kitty Kozies so that they can feel loved and cuddled, even when I can't be with SewPsyched!http://www.blogger.com/profile/04286345452598767963noreply@blogger.com14tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2143819098638543350.post-14660621205603189322016-07-26T17:15:00.002-08:002016-07-29T14:49:31.260-08:00

So there I am, lying on the floor of the workroom, pins sticking into my arms and legs, covered with thread and the piecing I am hanging on my design wall, the bruising ladder across my body.

I've just returned from a weekend retreat with my Quilting Ladies.
Fall has come to Alaska. Glorious cerulean skies, crisp breezes and Golden Yellow birch and aspen. My quilting lady Camilla made a mid-sunday raid on the crab apple trees outside of the community library, perchance committing some sort of fruit felony? And brought us all luscious crab apple butter for our hot toast.

The Hubster and I like to take Wee Wanders on Saturdays,
Wanders to feed the soul, listen to the sounds of water,
Be startled by a sudden burst of color, around an unexpected turn...
Be cheered at the thought of Autumn's approach, as it means Christmas is near...
Admire the things to be found on the trunks of trees...
And turn suddenly for home, and a broad vista...

When Anna Maria Horner named her new line of fabrics Loominous,
She wasn't kidding!!!
Each of the colorways has a stripe, a check, a solid and a pattern,
Can you see how the Weave in the check just glows, and how the solid is like a luminous shot cotton?
The weight is perfect for clothing, about the same as a Peppered cotton by Pepper Cory.
Soooo Soft, and Rich!!
