I'm so busy... oh so busy

Unfortunately, it hasn't all been sewing/quilting.  Monday, dr. appt for hubby, Tues. grocery shopping and having the car interior cleaned/'detailed', Wed. - took car to shop for 'tweaking'.. they didn't fix the 'tweak' correctly so I have to take it back again next week.  Today, it was taking hubby for a haircut, and while waiting, I stopped in where I get my pedis and made him an appointment for Tuesday ( I'll bet you anything he'll forget that he told me he'd try it ONE time lol) and then went to the groomers downtown and made Buddy appt for grooming on Thursday ( same day car has to go in) and then I got to stop at one of our LQSs and found some backing fabric for my Chubby Chicks quilt - I didn't take a pic today, but will try to remember tomorrow.

I have been trying to squeeze in some sewing here and there... I couldn't go anyplace yesterday so I was able to work on something... to be revealed at a later date.

Then, today after coming back from downtown, I went into my sewing room determined to get started on trying to get caught up on my BOM and my RSC.  Well, no progress on the BOM, but I did get these done
 Two foxes done - two more for April to go ... then four for May
This bunny does NOT have blue ears, although they kind of look good ... that is WHITE.. I don't know why they are showing up that way... I'm going to blame my Ott light... that was the only reason I could think of.... and as I'm posting the pic of the bunny, I realized that it was supposed to be done in PINK/ROSE because the bunnies are going to be done - well, were going to be done from May to Dec.... since I have a April one done ( same fabrics as the foxes except the backgrounds), I guess I'll have to refigure how many I want to make each month.  I only need twenty.  Ok  nine months into twenty bunnies ... two a month except for three months when I'll do three ( need one for label :)  ).  It doesn't have it's mouth yet - I'll either be doing by hand with embroidery thread or by machine with a heavy stitch.... I'm thinking I'd like to do them by hand - we'll see.

Ok, that's it for tonight... I have no plans for tomorrow except to finish the foxes and maybe a second bunny and it would be nice if I could at least get a start on my BOM Gnome for the holidays... I think I've only got one block done; need to do April and May.

take care

 I finished the two gift quilts - and both have been delivered to a parent of the little girl recipient. I have the requested photo from one...
