Kittie Cat Quilts

How can I use up all the small cute fabric since I can't throw them or give them away? I read a quilting mystery pocket book whose heroine made cat quilts. So I made one for my cats and they really like it. Made six for my cat sitter, who has 8 cats, and really liked the minke one. So I have been trying to make more and sell them at the RCQG Country Store in Nov. The cats like the puffy polyester filled ones and strech out on a 14x14 inch piece. I am enjoying making them too.

SAD times or Winter Blues

Well this was a year that I thought would be different with a new grandchild to enjoy. I suffer from Depression called dystymia or melancholia and SAD the seasonal depression in the winter. Exercise and keeping busy usually works but my dog Dora ran away in May so I was really missing her company and haven't been walking out. I also did a stupid thing by stopping my antidepressent meds in April cause my Naturopahy Dr. gave me supplements and put me on a Glutten Free diet which made me feel so normal. However, I started eating bread again. BAD. So in December I was enduring a lot of crazy thinking and getting physically ill.
Finally went in to the Dr. and am back on my meds. It took about three days to calm down and still feel out of sorts but sane. I hope I don't need to see a Psyciatrist for an evaluation and take more meds that make me fuzzy headed.
