Second set of Happy Blocks done

I've just been having a nice quiet day at home with my sewing machine. Hubby is off work but got up early & went out rabbit hunting. He came home for a good dinner of roast beef, baked potatoes, green beans & homemade peach pie w/ice-cream and then left again to go ice fishing. See, that money I spent on a hunting & fishing license is paying off already!! I don't know if he goes back to work tomorrow or not, I just know I don't have to so maybe I'll sew some more. Here's a picture of the second set of Happy Blocks. The more you sew the faster it goes, guess there's a rhythm to it.

What's on my cutting table

I did manage to get some sewing done this afternoon. Got some blocks sewed in rows for a quilt for my DS &DDIL for Christmas. They got a new camper last spring and were hinting VERY broadly that they sure could use a quilt to match the camper interior since the comforter that came with it was pretty chintzy. I know they'll be happy with it.
I also got most of the customer Christmas stocking parts cut out. When you need to do something you really don't have much interest in it just hangs over your head until you do it. That's how I am with these.

Here's a pic of my other cat sound asleep on the bunk bed in my sewing room. The one I showed this morning is still asleep in the same spot. These cats really know how to spend a gray, gloomy & windy day. It started snowing again a little while ago so it looks like it'll be a wet start to deer season tomorrow.
