Dream in progress... part 15

Oh joy, I got a lot of sewing done on my Babette blanket this week. I have been working according to the pattern which suggests to sew together blocks. I have 8 of the 10 blocks done. I have the bad habbit of not sewing in the loose parts directly so that particular boring task still lays ahead of me...
But look how much I'm already able to cover myself! :)While laying out the blanket on our floor, our cat thought it was a good idea to mess it up... Naughty, naughty kitty! :)

    Wow you are so close to finishing! At least when you get to the tying up loose ends part you can do it under the blanket! Or you could just never turn it over...xo

    I truly identify with the Cats Dilemma. I once had a 3D design professor who told us to store our in-progress work somewhere "safe from cats." I don't know what universe he lived in - in mine there's no such place! They jumped over my shoulder and THROUGH my project as I was working on it :(

    OK, this settles it for me... I have to do a Babette. I'm sure hoping that Babette in green is a link over to the pattern.... ;0)

    Can't wait to see the Ta-Da...
