City Streets Quilt Block Pattern
This looks like a great block and fairly easy to do. It was on About.com Quilting by Janet Wickle.

One of the nicest sailboat patterns I have seen. Maybe it is the pink LOL. A Quilt Pro block. 
Certainly amusing, I can't claim it is mother love since I know the mother could not set that pack herself LOL.
Whew A basket full of adorable trouble. In my life I had two Siamese kittens. Neither one worked for me. The first one I got after I had miscarried my first child. Some how it escaped out of our apartment through an open door and was killed by a car. I was beside myself with grief , first my child and then my kitten. Not a good time for me.
The second one I had in my mid thirties. Unfortunately it was not a match made in heaven. It would attack me everytime I turned around . It would sit by the tub and peer at me looking as if it wanted in. It destroyed my dresses by climbing up the clothes and running across the top of the
rod . It was almost 45 years ago. I haven't had many cats in my life . Bad luck for both the cats and for me. Too bad. I have been thinking about a Devon Rex though.
This is oneof the more attractive ones I have seen.
It is a best in Show. These cats are strange looking but have such nice natures. They are born without the outer layer of fur so what you see is the inner or under layer and is incredibly soft.
After a busy morning doing things around the apartment and having my hair washed in the shower I had to rest. Why I find it so exhausting to shower and dress I don't know. It is weird.
We went to do the grocery shopping that we did not get done yesterday. It rained like the skies opened up and sent down buckets full of water. We were just on the way to the car when that happened. Then we went to Safeway to pick up a prescription and onthe way out the exact same thing happened. We sure got wet. But it was a lovely sight to see that pounding rain. I wish I had been home to hear it on the roof. One of my favourite things LOL
Can you believe it ? Certainly grey and wet.
When we came home I went into the kitchen and started to cook. I made some clam chowder . I had to keep on stirring it so it would not burn the bottom of the pot so that meant a lot of standing. But it was good. Ray won't eat it as he hates seafood so I have a big pot of clam chowder to eat all by myself. I am sure some will go down the tube -or- maybe I could freeze it for another day.
I just love this picture of mom and baby moose and wanted to share it with you.
Richard had a nice time taking his Sunday drive this morning. It is the simple things that give us pleasure. Think of the things that make your heart gladden. Mostly it is the simple things of life that do that. I love a day when it rains hard. Simple right ? and today I got that pleasure. It does not happen that often, usually it drizzles.
We are watching The Mentalist and not the hockey game which the Canucks are losing Sigh!
