    You know I've always wanted a big patchwork quilt but there so rare here and when you do find them your looking at hundreds of pounds :(
    Millie had lots of blankets she has two favourites one has a dog on and the other a cat they are the softest fur and cotton they have there own bags too hehehehe something else that jellycat no longer make so I refuse to let her out with them because id never be able to replace them.

    I have made one hand-made quilt. It was crib sized and took me 4 years to finish!

    My daughter loves it though.

    CBW, I found that eBay is one of the best places to get vintage or antique quilts...
    My mother in law makes quilts, she belongs to all sorts of clubs and such... she gave me one that was all chickens. Hee hee, I love it!

    Even eBay are way out of my legue admittedly they aren't on the u.s eBay but then I'm looking at about 50 pounds that's 100 dollars postage and there's just no way I'm paying that when I'm fully aware of p+p rates.

    Stuff On My Cat: Tough or lazy?

    Just for the kitty lovers

    I love stuffonmycat.com - it always makes me smile

    Another good one is mycathatesyou.com, but it has some snarky, rude and sometimes offensive captions that accompany the pics, but is a good pick-me-up as well.

I am going to get busy again. Grady and I set out and got everything almost in the front for the sale, now, babysit, and tagging is what needs to be done.
