Thelma the librarian is still on the tweaking table. I could clearly see that she didn't have quite the right body language. She was leaning back too far, and this gave her the appearance of a laid-back librarian--definitely not "the look" I'm aiming for. So I gave her a little more bottom padding so she'll be leaning slightly forward and getting right in the face of those naughty reading-room talkers.
And while I was plumping up Thel, I had an idea for a couple of characters I could make out of two empty Jack Daniel's bottles Mr. Gadget so kindly passed on to me. Then I thought of a third character who would nicely complement the the first two, so I asked Mr. G. if he would mind drinking another bottle and he said he'd see what he could do.
And while I wait patiently for those cat-book authors to work on their pattern for my personal chef, I cooked up a couple of things yesterday. The first was roasted red peppers--one of Mr. Gadget's favorites.
"I'm always nice to you, aren't I? I replied. "Besides, it's the least I can do to let you know how much I appreciate you drinking all that liquor to keep me well stocked with dollmaking supplies."

I've taken many quilting classes and have dozens of books if you want some hints. Not necessary to prewash fabrics and is actually easier to handle pieces with sizing in them. However, if you wash some, it's best to wash all. I never prewash when using top quality quilting fabrics...too lazy. Next time you are down my way, come look thru my books and borrow any you like! I'll be home early Wed but probably not fit for company till I get some sleep!
