Cat stuff: Mademoiselle Jade in the garden

Time for some gratuitous cat photos. Presenting Mademoiselle Jade as featured in the garden this morning.

We like to build dens and apparently, Mademoiselle Jade likes it when we build dens too. As soon as we get our bamboo poles and blankets out she goes bonkers. Wish I could get a video of her behaving like a lunatic in the grass - it's hilarious! Enjoy.

Sewing: Cat Print Fabric for Needle Rolls

Check out these FQs I bought earlier this week from Fiddlesticks Fabrics on e-bay. Aren't these the cutest 'chic' cat prints ever? I should be able to make quite a few needle holders with this pretty lot.

This batch is called KITTY CAT MEOW and is available in the pink/black combo, below, and also a blue/black combo which is equally delightful.


The second theme is called PARIS CATS and is available in the pink/rose tones, below, and also a blue combo.


I would have happily bought them all!!!

The plan is to use a printed fabric for the front of each needle roll, with a plain contrasting fabric for the main lining, using some of the matching/coordinating prints to make the inside pocket! I'm hoping they will make nice presents to include with swap/exchange packages.
