Me Mondays: A Kittens Tale (177)

Well ladies, I've done it, I've finally finished A Kittens Tale by Lynette Anderson...wonderful journey of learning to master half square triangles and pinwheels...applique needle turn & raw edge...playing with silks yet again...and completely being the guru of the smallest yo-yo's available to make lol...let me see the border alone was 112 yo-yos - BLISS..

(well I did curse them a little towards the end lol)

But Look, what do you think? I'm in love, all over again...come here kitty, kitty, kitty :)

  

Until next time, stay happy and creative!

Very cute!!! I'm working on a quilt now that I'm going to making yo-yo's for, but mine are the big yo-yo's,. I'm not sure I would have the patients to make AND sew on 112 of them! lol.

Jamie: thanks so much for your comment *blush* the yo-yo's were super fun in stages lol, the finished project I'm super happy with :)

It is gorgeous, but oh my!! Those yo yos would have gotten to me.

It looks gorgeous. And I curse you because I love how the yo-yos look on the outside border so much that I'm probably going to do it too and me and yo-yos have a strained relationship. LOL

Heather, too funny, strained. I would say me and yo-yos were dating, then married, then separated and now we just can't live without eachother :) Valerie

It looks even cuter in person. I must admit too, that usually I am not a big fan of the cat, but after seeing this it made me wish I had done it too. Great job Miss Valerie.

Jen, thanks for your comment. I know your a dog person but there was some cute dogs throughout the quilt too..it was a fun project with lots of techniques:) Valerie
