I was laughing at the antics of your teen-aged Boris. You have to let them go sometime, even if they're cats. Your new project looks lovely; I'm vicariously living my quilting dreams through for now. I do hope that Hugh is progressing well. thanks for sharing your springtime world! I'm scuffing through fallen leaves here!

I don't buy my rotary cutter blades at regular sewing stores - there's a tool store here called Harbor Freight, and they sell "carpet cutter" blades which are exactly the same thing for so much less!!! And I do mean exactly the same thing. Seems you can charge so much more just by putting a quilting stamp on something, lol.Allie-oops Designshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10356598486121651755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4450572385521130262.post-60606059415983342452015-10-01T11:46:22.307+13:002015-10-01T11:46:22.307+13:00Jean, what a wonderful bouquet to arrive!

When I opened your blog to see snow and more snow, and you say spring in now blooming, it is obvious you live nowhere near my 'neck of the woods'. Where do you live?? Your flowers are lovely here and so is your quilting. I am an inactive quilter. I used to quilt a lot with my trusty Bernina, but some time ago I decided I just didn't have time for two hobbies at once, and my first love is photography so that takes up most of my hobby time. But for some reason, fall and winter bring on the urge to quilt, probably because I can't be outside photographing as much do to weather. And now I'm expecting my 13th grandchild in a few months so that is great incentive to design a baby quilt, which I have done for each grandchild.What Karen Seeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07794694138108500767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4450572385521130262.post-72075011883438964832015-10-01T00:07:21.007+13:002015-10-01T00:07:21.007+13:00Your lovely flowers look so pretty, Jean.

It will be fun to watch the progress ... along with the garden progress too.<br />I am not much of a cutter expert but I love Olfa products. I use their craft knives for teaching whittling, and though the blades are replaceable, they can be sharpend and used over and over for years.Julie Fukudahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15704374750710761269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4450572385521130262.post-34398557353588031752015-09-30T14:53:50.877+13:002015-09-30T14:53:50.877+13:00The flowers are spectacular!

Blades - I have only replaced my Olfa with the brand blades, and this has been done ever so infrequently. I think over the past few years with my present cutter I have had two or thee replacement blades, one was my fault I ran over the ruler!<br />Mystic Quilterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13233427034920359604noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4450572385521130262.post-65865989077015115892015-09-30T09:32:55.384+13:002015-09-30T09:32:55.384+13:00Jean, you are a busy bee going into spring.
