WIP Wednesday

It is Wednesday again , wow the weeks just fly by . I have lots of projects on the go but only a couple I can share right now ,this first one I should have finished by now as it is just waiting for binding which I do have ready but just have not had a chance to get it sewn on , it wont happen today either so Ill share it the way it is for now.
This cat is in the same Fons and Porter magazine as the pumpkin placemat , I think he has the most adorable grin , I just had to make him.
 As many of you know I quilt with some great gals on Tuesdays at the church and it just so happens that one of my quilts is now in the frame which makes me soooooooooo happy , it has been in the UFO pile for quite sometime.
The name of this quilt is Louisa and is a Moda pattern designed by Terry Clothier Thompson . My dear hubby bought the kit for this quilt a number of years ago and I finally got around to making it a little over a year ago now ,it is a busy looking quilt but I love the old fashioned look to the fabrics and it is really looking great now that some quilting has been done .
 What else do I have going , well the stay at home RR is in the works , my crazy quilt blocks need to be made into a quilt , I need to make some more postcards for a swap and I could go on and on but I dont want to depress you or me ;-0
 It is a gorgeous sunny day here today , wish I was doing laundry and hanging it out but my washer decided to quit on me so we need to call a repair man .
I am linking up today with the Needle and Thread Network so be sure to check out who else has linked up , lots of interesting things to see . As always thanks for stopping by and have yourself a wonderful day.
 hugs Sheila
