Molly would like to welcome you to this blog's New Year. I complained that I didn't have much to show for myself and she agreed that living with cats can erode a human's sense of self, with good reason. She prattled on about something or other, but when living with cats you learn to just tune out the endless drivel.
In the last post, Molly showed herself watching a documentary on squirrels. She's watching a new series now but isn't too sure whether its science fiction or fantasy. While she was quietly watching, Buddy ran up to the screen and the star of the show hissed at him. It was a plot twist neither of them expected.
Meanwhile, the postage stamp blocks are up on the design wall as I move the squares around either to make a more pleasant arrangement or to stall sewing it all together. The blocks are currently 64 patches, eight postage stamps across. And these are postage stamps after shrinkflation...3/4 inch finished instead of 1 inch. My plan is to build them up to 128 patch blocks and then recheck the arrangement.

Plot twist!
Your quilt-in-progress is both gorgeous and mind-boggling! Have you calculated how many microstamps you've got there, or are you happier not knowing...
I can't imagine making a quilt like this. My cats also have a live nature show just outside the glass door. Mother possum and her 3 youngsters. They love cat crunchies.
I agree with Gayle that the postage stamp quilt is mind boggling. I can,t imagine making one block with such small pieces as I have a tough enough time with larger pieces. Well done.
I believe this quilt shows that you are definitely certifiably crazy. But if it keeps you off the streets, I guess it's okay.

Rosie is currently watching a big fat bunny at night in my snowy garden. I have all my vulnerable plants surrounded by green chicken wire, but you never know with rabbits. I wish they would just go away. But then, Rosie TV would just be a white test pattern. Love the postage stamp quilt, it will be a hearty quilt when done.
