I finally finished my butterfly thread painting project!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The design was all mine and the butterflies were free motioned embroidered.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now I'm working on a new project that I will share in my next post. </div>

People that don't sew don't understand why I sew.</div>

It's cheap therapy and it makes me happy to do something special for someone else.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Have you ever wound a bobbin and it looked like this?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My suggestion is to rewind your bobbin.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A bobbin that is not wound properly will give you very poor stitch quality and a lot of frustration.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If you still are having stitch issues, try a different bobbin.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A metal bobbin can be slightly bent causing many issues. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I throw bent bobbins away so I don't accidentally use them again. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Happy Easter!</div>

A friend of mine and I spent a wonderful afternoon together sandwiching her quilt and mine together.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This quilt is the leftover blocks from my original<a href="http://kayzquiltz.blogspot.com/2010/10/bloggers-quilt-festival-handkerchief.html" target="_blank"> Handkerchief Grandmother's Fan quilt</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I fell in love with this colorful fabric that came into the store that I work at.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now I have to think about how to quilt it :) </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Here is a "sneak peek" of a butterfly wall hanging that I have been on my design wall for a long time.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There are wonderful memories of time spent at a butterfly museum in St. Louis, Missouri with family.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I free motion thread painted these off a picture that I took with my point and shoot Canon camera.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I will post a picture of the completed wall hanging when I am finished.</div>

Spring is in the air and it's time to think about spring cleaning.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
One of those items that needs to be cleaned is your sewing machine.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
All brands of sewing machines have a stitch plate; please remove the plate and brush lint out to keep metal parts from wearing out.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Always check through your owner's manual for maintenance that you can do and every 1-3 years have a trained service tech do a general overhaul.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Yes!!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I am still quilting, sewing, farming, and alive!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Sometimes you just need a break to take care of important family matters.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Next month will be the anniversary of my dear Father-in-law's death.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We were so blessed to have him with us for such a long time.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
He has been such an inspiration to me personally and I miss him.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

He worked hard, served his country, and took great care of family.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My family has experienced some other losses of family members that we deeply miss, but time goes on and God is in control. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's below zero outside, but the farm work isn't done. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now the office work on taxes has been in progress and planning spring planting is top priority.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Winter is also a time to reflect on all the blessings and crazy things that have happened last year.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
One example is our combine break one sunny afternoon after I dropped off Dean for an afternoon of combining. I wasn't home for 10 minutes and I received a call that the combine exploded!</div>

What a mess, but we were only down for a short time.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now the best is saved for last!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My friend, Connie, needed some help finishing her quilt and she asked me!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Her angels needed a little bit of quilting so I decided to add some feathers to their wings and I am so happy with the results!</div>

I have been missing in action on my blog lately.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Life has been so busy and so many circumstances have prevented me from having time to post.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We did get through harvest, which seemed to go on forever this year.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I am very thankful that our family and other farming families in our area had a safe harvest.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The long hours and working with big machinery is a recipe for a farm accident, but we try our best to be safety minded. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There have been some health issues with a family member that has made our family extremely thankful for all the wonderful relationships that we have nurtured through the years.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have a new job!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I am a sewing machine mechanic and quilting teacher!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It has been an adjustment, but it works perfectly with my schedule. </div>

Last <a href="http://kayzquiltz.blogspot.com/2013/01/thread-painting-tips.html" target="_blank">winter</a> I was working on a Christmas quilt. I am hoping to have it on my bed by Christmas!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We will see what happens :) </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I also started another quilt because I couldn't wait! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Have you ever brought a book home and couldn't wait to get the project started even though you know you shouldn't.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Oh well--I guess that is where the term UFO's comes from in the quilting world.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is another sewing room tip:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Organize your quilting books by category.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It saves time and frustration trying to find a book that you need.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Thanks Mom for the tip of the day :) </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Hope everyone has had a Happy Thanksgiving. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Happy Quilting!</div>

Here is my sewing room tip:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I put all my used needles in an old pill bottle.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This way you can safely dispose of your needles and it keeps them away from curious pets and kids.</div>

I would like you to meet Baby Logan.</div>

There is a baby quilt on the way to keep him warm during the winter months.</div>

Sorry I was in such a big hurry to ship it that I forgot to take a picture, but this picture is just as sweet as can be.<br />

This week I am going to teach a class on making a potholder.<br />

We are going to do a little free motion quilting.<br />
Zentangle doodling and free motion quilting seems to go hand in hand!<br />
What better way to experiment with doodling with my sewing machine needle than on a back of a potholder.<br />
I used one layer Insul-Bright for the front of my potholder and 2 layers of 100% cotton batting for the back.<br />
They were quilted <b>separately</b> without a backing fabric like you would a quilt and bound with homemade bias tape with the wrong sides (batting sides) together.<br />
This way there are three layers of batting, the top, and the back.<br />
If I run out of Insul-Bright, I have used two layers of 100% cotton batting for the top of the potholder.<br />
Insul-Bright<b> cannot</b> be doubled because there is a problem with needle breakage.<br />
I have not had any problems FMQ without a backing fabric.<br />
The best things about potholders are they wear out quickly and they do not have to be perfect :)<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
I am also teaching a mini class on sewing room organization.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here my tip of the week:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
When I change needles and the needle is still good, I put it in my old tomato pincushion.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If you click on the picture, you will see that I have all the sizes and different kinds in their designated area. I wrote the areas with a fine tip pigma pen.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For many years I put them back into the original box, but I like this method better because the tomato reminds me that "this needle has been used". </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Stay tuned for more tips as time goes on.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I am always looking for more organizational tips--please share :)</div>

Life has been so busy since wheat harvest. As soon as wheat harvest was finished I taught two classes at the <a href="http://www.quiltfoundry.com/" target="_blank">Quilt Foundry</a>. My students were wonderful! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I hope they had as much fun as I did!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We did a class on thread painting and FMQ quilting feathers.</div>

All these blocks in this quilt are real barn quilts in <a href="https://www.facebook.com/WoodCountyOhioFourH" target="_blank">Wood County Ohio</a>! My Mom volunteered to make the blocks and made sure that all the colors were exactly as they were painted.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Wood County 4H groups painted the barn quilts.</div>

What a neat way to get people aware of Ohio farms and quilting! </div>

The wheat was ready the 4th of July, but it kept on raining.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Last week we had a violent wind storm that caused some damage to our corn. The picture above was what it looked like right after the storm. We were blessed because the corn looks much better now and has straightened up.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We did lose a field of beans that were flooded and are now an ugly brown color.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
We did get the wheat harvested this week before it rained again.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Harvest wasn't without problems and the combine was in the fix it shop for a day, but the delay was only one day</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Our son came to help and we enjoyed every minute he was there. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I know we had some wheat loss because it was way past due to be harvested.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
When wheat is too ripe, you can just touch the heads and they will shatter so there is wheat loss on the ground instead of being threshed in the combine.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Every farm year is different, but I wouldn't change a thing :)</div>

Here is a Betsy Ross flag that has seen better days.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Many years ago I rescued it from my church's basement.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
They were going to have the Boy Scouts properly dispose of it, but I didn't have the heart to give it up.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It has been hung on our porch on holidays, but she's too weak to hang so she still is carefully laid on my drying rank for display.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I guess I appreciate this flag most of all because there was a lady that made this flag possible.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I can imagine her sewing the first flag by firelight this flag and the sense of accomplishment she had when it was first hung.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I can also imagine her quilting and sewing clothes by hand. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Here is a tiny quilt that I promised as a donation for a future premature baby out there.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I want to get it done before I see my sister so she can put it with the other quilts that will be donated.</div>

Not much has been going on in my sewing room the last several weeks.<br />
I've been painting along with my church family our new addition.<br />
A lot of painting gets done when there are a dozen people with paint rollers!<br />
I did get a chance to enjoy the flowers at my neighbors.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
When we went to the International Quilt Show in Cincinnati, I bought a new ruler and rotary cutter.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I don't know about you, but there are days that my rotary cutting is not as accurate as I would like on cutting long strips. I have seen the True Cut system before, but never tried it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjKABsoPIDpevhWNqT5rkE0sJ772fahYe0RDiVA1i8F5Dl2_jPD8o_sZTucm6dtBRWZTuftjbduKnELJd6P_Pl3TLZ9AycjnwtFOh7K-JNnC97YhfuPItBS-ROoWiL2fXZ9SzR68WmzXk8/s1600/IMG_3070.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjKABsoPIDpevhWNqT5rkE0sJ772fahYe0RDiVA1i8F5Dl2_jPD8o_sZTucm6dtBRWZTuftjbduKnELJd6P_Pl3TLZ9AycjnwtFOh7K-JNnC97YhfuPItBS-ROoWiL2fXZ9SzR68WmzXk8/s320/IMG_3070.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
I found that this cutter fits my hand perfectly and there is a place for my thumb to rest.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's perfect for quilters that have joint pain and for beginner adult quilters.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This system has a little lip that the cutter follows--so your cutter does not wander off ever so slightly. Even the most experienced quilters find themselves squaring up their fabric because of this problem.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is a close up my new ruler. I like the open squares inside this ruler. I see some future quilt marking possibilities with this ruler.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I also checked this ruler with all my other quilting rulers and the measurements all line up exactly!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I still will be using my old rulers and cutters, but this is a great addition to my quilting tools.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If you have a wandering rotary cutter or hand pain problem, I would try before you buy at a quilt show and see if this system works for you :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I will be watching for other neat quilting tool ideas from the True Cut Company. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have a question for you to think about:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Do you wear shoes when you are using your rotary cutter?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This is just a gentle reminder that if you drop things accidentally like I do--</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
you don't want to be wasting time in an emergency room!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It hasn't happen to me, but I have heard of it happening! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
When you live on the farm, we are always thinking about safety--even in quilting.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I slightly injured my hand on the farm several weeks ago and it is just fine, but I could have broken a bone because I wasn't thinking and didn't take Dean's warnings.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It is too long of story to explain and most of you won't ever be around an old fertilizer wagon, but you are around rotary cutters :) </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
There have been other projects that I have been working on besides quilting and farming.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A friend of mine had talked me into joining Pinterest and I have been finding so many neat ideas and I had found potting bench from Toni from <a href="http://signaturegardens.blogspot.com/2012/02/potting-in-diy-style.html?showComment=1328294082550#c5848051272136008693" target="_blank">Signature Gardens. </a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I fell in love with her potting bench and she was generous enough to even have an online tutorial.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I said something to Dean about it and he told me to go out to the barn because there are all kinds of old lumber that should be used up.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So I went on a treasure hunt out in the barn and to my surprise there were plenty of old barn siding and old cedar posts to do the project.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The only items I bought were two shelf brackets and stain.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I made it myself!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now before you even think about doing a project like this, please be familiar with all the safety rules of using table saws. They can be dangerous if you don't know what you're doing.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Also remember to wear eye and hearing protection!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />The weather has been warm and I even had a chance to enjoy the birds!</div>

It just had to happen in the last field that he was planting on the farm :)</div>

It only slowed things down for about 45 minutes. The old hose had seen better days!</div>

I can't believe all the planning and paperwork that goes into farming.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The only way I can explain it to a non-farm person
is it's a lot like planning a wedding. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
When the day comes, you better
have all the details planned out or there will be opportunities missed.</div>

Here is the finished project!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I quilted words into the border saying:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><i>Life on the other side will always be veiled in mystery</i>. </b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I cut my letters on my Cricut paper cutter using freezer paper with the shiny side down.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I ironed my letters on my quilt top and found out that some of the letters were not sticking very well so I used water solvable thread and stitched them down.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
After layering my quilt top together I quilted around my letters and eventually disposed of the paper.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I wanted people to see the lettering and I wasn't happy with the results so I use the traponto technique using white yarn and needle filling in each letter. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

I still wasn't happy because the lettering was not showing up so at my son's suggestion-- I quilted around the letters using white thread.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This quilt project was really a challenge for me and I enjoyed every minute of it :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It is a busy time on the farm.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Have you ever heard of a gofer?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I "go for" parts, fertilizer, anhydrous, lunch, and whatever my farmer needs.</div>

We've had a good farming week even though we've had a break down with our other tractor (not pictured). Our big tractor (my tractor) has double wheels put on it in the spring so there is traction to work the ground. Well the hub on the tractor was worn down and the extra wheel would rotate when it should be giving the tractor traction.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It was down for only a day and Dean quickly fixed the wheel after spending $300 to fix it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We were very thankful that it was only $300. Machinery repairs can be really expensive and they only breakdown when you use them.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I had a pleasant surprise! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My younger son, Ron, drove tractor this week since he finished his college semester.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It was nice to spend time with family even though we were all working. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have given you a few sneak peeks of my quilt challenge.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now that my quilt is hanging at the <a href="http://www.saudervillage.org/Creativity/quilt_show.asp" target="_blank">Sauder's Quilt Show</a>, it's not a secret anymore.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My design wall was used a lot this winter.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The theme of the challenge was "veiled in mystery".</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I thought of all the things that seem to be veiled in mystery to me.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Heaven, humming birds, and stars came to mind, which all lead to our Creator.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have been fascinated by the humming birds that visit our feeder all summer long and the stars.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So my idea evolved into thread painting this copyrighted picture from <a href="http://www.vtm.smugmug.com/" target="_blank">Vic Murayama</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
He had given me permission to thread paint artist renditions of his photos.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
I used water several layers soluble stabilizer and bridal veil tulle. </div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEij682M3EBbY3POZroUj5AhAHccuVlEmJ3OPXFg02XjgeAesghIogwjr1O2IhRbFzh2PTOEdeacfiIBzlnYQWazxQXpNDM5EKaV0HPVMA9A4rmL6CEtpDQcYQCEpYOnUz3K8xMfLMNDADg/s1600/IMG_1795.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEij682M3EBbY3POZroUj5AhAHccuVlEmJ3OPXFg02XjgeAesghIogwjr1O2IhRbFzh2PTOEdeacfiIBzlnYQWazxQXpNDM5EKaV0HPVMA9A4rmL6CEtpDQcYQCEpYOnUz3K8xMfLMNDADg/s320/IMG_1795.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
I dissolved the stabilizer and cut away the tulle after I was finished.<br />
My little friend was sewed on with invisible thread and the bottom feather was purposely left loose.<br />
<br /></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Last weekend was an exciting because I had the pleasure of spending time with my Mom and Aunt at the International Quilt Festival at Cincinnati, Ohio. I wish I had the time to post about every quilt that caught my eye, but I don't have that kind of time so I picked out a few of my favorites.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
ElaTED made by Ted Storm is a beautiful applique quilt that used brown plaid.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My pictures of this quilt do not even come close to seeing it in person.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Cherry Blossoms by Noriko Endo is machine quilted and embroidered.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This quilt stood out to me because of how realistic the cherry blossoms look. </div>

Last weekend Dean and I decided to visit family in Nashville, Tennessee.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We came a little early so I conveniently had an address of a quilt shop in Mt. Juliet that I wanted to visit.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I had even called the day before to make sure of the store hours.<br />

The ladies were sewing in an open class room in the back of the shop and quickly invited me to see all the quilting projects they were working on.<br />

When I was a little girl and dreamed of castles, this was exactly what was in my imagination.<br />
The art, gardens, attics, winery, and library are worth the trip to see.<br />
I saw quilting designs everywhere I looked so I bought a picture book to put on my coffee table for inspiration.<br />
<br />
Happy Quilting!<br />

I went shopping this week and what did I find, but neat little thumb drive to keep all my sewing and </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
quilting files on.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I don't think my husband will use my thumb drive since it looks like a sewing machine.</div>

He will probably want one that looks like a tractor.</div>

Monday we were surprised by a late snow. It's slowly getting warmer here in Ohio!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There may not be much going on in the farm fields, but there's a lot of paperwork and machinery being worked on.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Hope you are having a Happy Easter and some time with family!</div>

Above is a small wall hanging that I made for a sample for a free motion quilting class I want to teach in the future. When I quilt my feathers, I always mark the stem with a chalk line. The feather plumes themselves are free handed in. If you like feathers like I do, keep on practicing drawing them. If drawing them is a problem, practice tracing your favorite feathers. The more you practice the more it will become second nature. Once you can draw them, you can free motion quilt them.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Your feathers will be unique and I promise you that they will not look like mine.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
They will probably look better! </div>

While I was shopping this week, I found a feather to hang on my sewing room wall for inspiration!<br />
I have never quilted my feathers like this one, but it gives me some ideas for in the future.<br />
There is inspiration everywhere I look! <br />
<br />
Happy Quilting and Feathering!<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
Hi Everybody!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Do you remember me?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I <a href="http://kayzquiltz.blogspot.com/2012/12/happy-new-year-from-zelda.html" target="_blank">posted</a> for Kay at New Year's time</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There have been a lot of things that have happened in my kitty life.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I was born in rural Ohio in a barn.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Dean found and took me home with him this last summer. Dean claimed that he didn't like cats, but he likes me.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It must be my good looks or my great personality!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My future master heard that Dean and Kay had me; he drove to pick me up one weekend.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It has been love ever since.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There have been some strange things that have happened like he changed my name from Zelda to Zeke!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I guess I'm a boy--oh well that doesn't change a thing!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I love my apartment in the city, but I miss my farmhouse in Ohio.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Maybe my master will take me for a visit soon.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I heard my master and Kay on the phone talking so here's my chance to get on the computer.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Kay has been so busy quilting; I am taking the liberty of posting for her!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
She has been working on a quilt challenge.<br />
The theme this year is call "Veiled in Mystery".<br />
Kay has been really secretive about this quilt project because she wants to surprise everyone with a special story of her project in late April or early May.<br />
She is also excited to see how all the other quilter's projects will turn out. <br />
I wonder if she is doing a quilt on me!<br />
After all, I am a cat "Veiled in Mystery"! <br />
<br />
Happy Quilting!<br />
<br />
Zeke<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
P.S. Please don't tell Kay that I posted! I've already gotten into too much trouble this week. What's wrong with trying to climb up a banner hanging on a wall or digging up those pesky house plants?</div>
</div>
