progress, wet cats

I've gotten a little farther on my quilt. So far its coming little by little and I'm only working on it whenever I've nothing else to do.
Today Ryan and I, mainly Ryan, cleaned the apartment. It was well overdue considering the cats have produced hairballs that could equzl a whole nother cat. Needless to say we fixed that too. We bathed them Yep, cruel and wrong but it got some of that loose hair un..loosened.
Happily, the cats are prancing around licking themselves and wondering what they did to deserve that kind of treatment.

my guilt quilt

So I am very excited about making this quilt but I feel a good amount of guilt about it. I was making a quilt for my grandma last year and it was going to be for Christmas. I didn't finish it in time so I was going to get it done for her birthday. I never finished it. Then she got really sick and was in the hospital. At that point I was afraid to do anymore work on it because I didn't want to think that she was dying. But then she did, and I never finished her quilt. Now I wish I had at least finished the quilt because I can't work on it. Its too hard for me. So the quilt I'm doing now is called my guilt quilt. But I think that the process will help me in some way.

Here's the start to my little (no quilt is a little project...) project.

I know its a tiny piece and not much to brag about but I think its a good lookin flower. And its all hand sewn. It took like an hour cause I had to remake three of the little hexagons.
