Don't forget to add your link (blog, flickr, instagram) to Nicky from Mrs. Sew and Sow and my March Scraptastic Tuesday Link up - go here. You can share a project using your scraps - in progress or finished - or some tips for using up that scrap mountain.

And you might ask, Leanne, what have you been sewing? Well, I have to say that the mad dash to Cuba and back over last weekend just wiped me out after being in Austin. It was hot and I conferenced and walked a lot, but no time at the beach. It seems that trip resulted in a big sleep deficit which is now, hopefully caught up.
I did manage to play with some oranges and some curvy improv. I will post a tutorial soon as I keep getting asked how one does this - it's very easy and fun.
And I was able to show a bunch of quilts to a few visitors this weekend. So then I rolled them up nicely, but where to put them now is the question. I need to identify a nice long shelf so that the quilts I am not using or gifting or hanging have a place to live without folding them up.
And I did do a bunch of quilting, but alas, did not finish this yet. I have the bottom border yet to do. Something to look forward too during my day at the office.
The kittens are getting big - teenagers now, they were keen on the napping part, at least.
Do join our Scraptastic link, and I will have some more sewing to share tomorrow, I hope.
Best,
Leanne

Traveling really does wipe one out doesn't it? Good to see a current photo of the kitties!
cuba? wow! the kitties are growing up so fast!
Oh, I nearly forgot the Scraptastic Tuesday. But Now I've linked up my La Passion. It is a really scrappy project, only the black fabric is following all through the quilt.
I love your orange curves. You are the best at matching colors !
And now I hope you'l have a little rest.
Friendly yours. Marie
