I love Nessie the Lakeness Dragon. I can’t seem to get a really good photo of her, though. I’ll keep trying.

These are Kay’s boots that I borrowed for sketching purposes. I just learned how to add the text overlay in Photoshop.
I hand-embroidered this sleepy kitty, based on the image in the book Stitchy Kitty Fuzzy Puppy by Ayaka Otsuka. Hand work isn’t something I usually want to do, but every once in a while I get the urge.

I have an easy time buying beautiful fabric but a hard time it cutting up. I managed to do just that, however, for this Sashed Half Hexagon quilt in Asian fabrics. It will soon go to the quilter, then the binding goes on. After that, I will give to a friend who is unaware I am making a quilt for them. And it’s someone who doesn’t read my blog, so I am totally safe in showing it to everyone else.

The pattern is the Sashed Half Hexagon by Missouri Star Quilt Company.
