Winter season - International Day of Peace

 It has been a busy month. Getting ready for the winter season. It is a bit awkward because the temperatures are still high and no rain whatsoever. No autumn or winter feelings yet. 

On the 21st of September it was the International  Day of Peace. 

 Dimitra appliqued the peace doves on the fabric and I made them into lined tote bags. Poor Dimitra broke her arm and can't do any sewing at the moment. 

 The world needs peace desperately! Too many conflicts and threats at the moment. I wish people would be a bit more understanding and compassionate.

 The Quilting Bee Sparta started last week. Because of the Covid the  members have to bring their own sewing tools. Excellent opportunity to make a kit for those tools. 

 The idea is that everyone has the appliqued cat, hearts and spool ready this week, so we can proceed with the sewing. After that the embroidery. I have lots of patterns. I choose this one for the back of my kit.

 I made a mistake in the counting at the skirt bottom, which I realized when I was on the top. So, this girl is a bit fatter than the one in the pattern. It doesn't really matter because it is supposed to be me and my cat. And I don't wear a size S !!!

 

The 4th of October was World Animal Day. I don't have dogs anymore. I have a cat and feed 3 stray ones in the garden. I love to make these little dog/cat mini quilts.

 Besides of dogs and cats we have the birds.

 

 Let's end with the symbol of Peace
