I've added triangles to the batik star quilt and we'll see what it tells me it needs next. Isn't it interesting how the stars appear.I also started sewing 2" squares together in a trial run for a project for my two girls this week. I've got a nice bin full of already sewn leaders/enders and I thought it would be nice to use those. Can these girls sew the L/E parts together? Can they fit the seams together? Are they going to be able to straight line quilt this?
I need to get my old sewing machine out and see if it still works because I'm going to need a machine each for these girls...And just for Japanese trivia/news. Today Japan is trying out the jury system for the first time. They've been preparing for this big day for years and today will be the first trial with a public jury. This first jury will be made up of 6 lay members, plus 3 professional judges. Actually the Japanese citizens are not too happy about this change in the judicial system. The general feeling is that it is too much responsibility to put on a mere citizen and no one wants to be involved in life-changing decisions for the accused.

I love the two quilts and interesting about a 'jury trial by peers' - guess we're so used to our Judicial system here in the US....
hope the quilting trial works well for the girls...
That quilt is going to be SO PRETTY! Yes, I love watching how the pattern comes together. I think the girls will do fine - at least, for your sake, I hope so!
That is VERY interesting about the judicial system in Japan. I had no idea.
Hello Tanya,
thank you for your kind and comforting comment on our sad post about LV. It is so hard, we can´t forget what happens. He was trapped in a garden and hunted there by 3 dogs and died after rescuing by the owner of shock and heard failure. It was not fair for this tiny kitty...
I´m now afraid to let my 3 cat out at night. They don´t want to stay in the house except Olli. Yesterday he was outside and I was glad when all three came back safe in the morning.
I can see it you are busy like usual with quilting. You used lovely colors.
Hugs
Stefanie
