Tumbler Quilt

I saw a sample of this quilt at the Honey Bee Quilt Store in Austin, Texas. I checked my list of rulers that I keep on my smart phone and I already owned the templates. They were a gift from Shelly some years ago. Well, I just had to try it, so I did. It went together fairly easily. Using batik fabrics made it easy as I didn’t have to flip the template over to get a reverse shape. I cut everything out with the template in one position and then I flipped the batik fabric over. I just love it when a plan comes together. It’s at the quilter’s as I write this so it will be ready soon for me to add the binding and then it will be ready to give away.

How To Make A Cat Nervous

Stop with camera
Cat eyes me with suspicion
I’m up to no good?

Cat (1)

How to make anyone nervous: stop to photograph something in their direction. I’m very careful on my urban hikes as to what I photograph and try not to intrude on anyone’s privacy. Well, I think I’m being careful but sometimes I still seem to crowd someone’s personal space. I photographed this cat only to have someone yell “HEY!” from over the fence. I explained to the man that I liked the cat’s face and that’s what I photographed. That seemed to alleviate the situation and I continued on without any more interaction. But really, if you want to make someone nervous, just get out your camera.
