Swaps & Secrets
This was the Monthly Doll Swap Group quilt that I received from Roberta. What was so cool is that she had grown up in my area. I just love all the green goodness mixed with many of Mother Natures sweetness. This is just stunning and lots of work into this little piece.
And I am an advocate of labeling - look!! She machine embroidered her label right on the backing fabric.
I received this lovely from my 'Sewing With Friends' partner - how cool is this!! Just adore everything about it - and the scissors, just too funny as I had been looking at these to buy for myself - now I have them.
And with all that was on my list for the month, I took on testing a pattern. NO this is the back of the quilt - you will have to wait until I get word that I can flip this over. Let's just say, this is an afternoon project that you will just enjoy.
I was re-organizing and preparing some boxes to mail out some items. I put the tape away and YUP - Moe in the Box! I only just noticed he has his tongue out - stinker.
I think he tried out every box, but he liked this one best and no coaxing would get him out. So I had to let him nap for a bit - once he got hungry, I finally got all my boxes packed.

Cute gifts, cute cat! ;-)
Oh you got some beautiful things. If that is the back I cannot wait to see the front. You cat makes me smile.
Everything is so cute, but not as cute as your cat in a box.
Lovely minis's and your puss is gorgeous. Mine loves paper and boxes.
So many lovely projects. Can't wait to see the front of the quilt. I love the back. Moe in the box is so sweet. I see that little tongue sticking out at the camera :D
Love that funny cat.
boxes must look like a nice place to hide. I had the same view here. we got a new computer and it took 3 days before I could recycle the box. my two "claimed it". LOL
love the green quilt and the sneak peak of the back is nice too. cant wait to see the front
What lovely quilts! Can't wait 'till you turn over your test quilt. Have a calm weekend too!
Moe looks right at home...even in a box! Looking forward to seeing the "other" side of the quilt soon.
what gorgeous gifts you have received Sharon and your Moe is so funny.xx
You always have the best mail.
Moe in the box :) too cute and sticking his tongue out like he's telling you something.
Lots of pretties there, but Moe takes the cake - he has beautiful eyes!!
Hopefully, when you get the signal to flip the test quilt over, you won't have to photo it on snow!! It was quite nice of Moe to test the boxes for you! I had to put the cat's boxes away for my party this week - I best get them out soon. LOL
Cats love boxes!
Lucky you those quilts are so cute. As for Moe he is adorable and make a purrfect tester. You can never be sure if boxes are fit for purpose unless you get a cat to test them.
Sweet little quilts and Moe looks pretty happy in the box :-)
I'm in love with the birdnext stitching - what a nice quilty gift. Wouldn't life be dull without those box sitters?
Very fun doll quilts.
Moe is definitely a character.
I don't know where I have been but I am reviewing your posts I missed. I love this little green doll quilt with all the details. Creative Bliss...
