Progress Report

Well.  Last week's goal was to cut out two costumes, and work on the quilt-for-hire.  I hit a few snags in the costume-cutting department - wrong size, and not enough fabric - but eventually was able to cut out both.  I spent yesterday and today preparing to dress a princess.

When Penny saw the dress on FaceTime, I told her that it didn't fit anyone at my house.  She looked at it and said, "I want...I need to go to Gramma's house!"  She thinks it will fit her.  :)

It's size 4, and I'm concerned it might be a tad big.  That's why I made this one first, in case I need to make a smaller one.  Belle will be the focus of the coming week.

Here's a picture taken this morning of Malcolm (age 13), Happy and Homeless.  Over the past 2-3 weeks, he's lost half of his body weight, and is suddenly very boney.  He gives the dog the stinkeye, and they leave him alone.  Such a difference between their relationship and those with the other cats. One bark sends all the other cats over the fence.  I wish they could come to some sort of agreement.  While these dogs are here, the cat spa seems to have gone out of business.  :(  I miss seeing the felines hanging out around the pool, just chillin'.

Goal for this week:  Sew Belle.  Goals are good!
