Number 200

Stitchery of a cat with flower in mouth and caption reads take time to eat the flowers
This is my 200th post since beginning my blog back in February of 07 with the encouragement of May Britt. It has been pure pleasure and privilege to meet so many wonderful quilters and stitchers from around the globe. To thank you for reading and commenting, I want to have a giveaway, but don't want it to interfere with the Fall into Fall Bloggers Giveaway. Sign up here between now and September 30th for a chance to win whatever I make using this stitchery that I finished today.

For the Fall into Fall Blogger's Giveaway that Debi is organizing, I will send this Halloween bag with five fat quarters of Halloween prints. I will take sign ups for this from October 1-14 with the winner drawn and announced on October 15th. I'll post a reminder on Oct.1st.

I finished Bea's stitchery BOM and also made another Disappearing Nine Patch for a friend in Canada. The quilt top will be quilted and given to the Volunteer Fire Department.
