Names

We've got to get to work thinking up a nice name for our new future kitten brother or sister.  The human's doctor thinks that all three are boy kitties, but do you think we need to have a girl kitten name picked out as well just in case he might be mistaken?  Maybe we if we give the new kitty the right name, a bunny like name, then it will decide to be our friend and ally against Brother.  Wouldn't that be so nice?

List

We think we need to write out a list of things to look for when we go to that giant sale this weekend so we don't get sidetracked and miss needed items.  We do worry that Betsy will get hold of the list, though, will add massive amounts of cookies and honey, and will trick some of the younger bunnies into possibly assisting her with snitching.  We wouldn't put taking advantage of baby bunnies past her.  We have lovely news on our Brother hunt too.  We gave the human's doctor our cell number so he can text us pictures of Brother and the kitties he is living with.  We can't wait to see those and pick out our new sibling!

Sibling Update

We hopped by the homeless shelter today, hoping they might have some fabric available to help support their lovely causes.  No fabric, but the nicest bear who had fallen on hard times did help us find two quilting hoops.  He was so nice, what else could we do but invite him to move in with us?  We're up to 771 siblings!

Lovely Update

We are almost finished with our second human sized quilt.  We keep hearing kitty screams with every stitch, but really, stuffing a bit of batting in our ears mutes them nicely.  We've had such a nice weekend.  There was a WONDERFUL fabric sale we went to today.  We got the material to construct two more quilts, and then sashing to assemble goodness knows how many more.  We think we got 24 yards all together.  Such a wonderful shopping spree!  We probably should have warned the store to guard their door against kittens, though, now that we think about it.

Saturday Report

The library amused itself providing us with the nicest books on quilt assembly today, and then we found this lovely, lovely site with so many wonderful patterns for blocks, with little templates we can download and print.  Needless to say, Brother is not happy, and is threatening our internet access.  We made a few adjustments to the internet password, though, so we don't see how we can mess with it.  Brother will just have to learn to live with our patterns is all we can say.

Cat Quilts

Brother is not a happy kitty, but really, does he expect us to cater to him after how he cruelly abandoned us?  He has no right to complain after the trouble he has caused, deserting and making us spend so long hunting him down and making arrangements to drag him back.  We went to a quilt shop today, and found the nicest fabric featuring kitties.  We grabbed four fat quarters, and might hop back for some yardage later.  And then we found the most interesting patterns, of kitties done up in a vegetable look!  Brother dressed as a carrot, we would love to make a quilt like THAT!

Giant Yard Sale

The giant yard sale that alarmed Brother so is scheduled for next week, and we are so looking forward to it.  There are always lots of nice seed and quilting things available there, and this year the human might arrange for us to meet with a friend of the Grandhuman's to test one of those lovely, lovely cutting machines.  We might even try to get get a hotel so we can stay all NIGHT this year!  Wouldn't that be fun?

Human Update

Human's still feeling rather sore and achy, so we might be heading back to the doctor tomorrow or next Tuesday for more work.  Whichever day we go, we're debating if we ought to lag something along for those other two kitties Brother is currently living with.  If we send them presents, then they might end up becoming our friends, and deciding bunnies are wonderful.  It would be so nice to have a kitty ally in the house for a change.

Human Report

The human is currently icing her wrist and elbow in an attempt to recover from the troubles inflicted upon her by her vic....  we mean characters.  Really, they have no sense of humor at all.  The doctor adjusted her wrist and elbow, and told her to ice it.  He didn't have any pictures of Brother, but he still has him under close watch, and it is just a matter of time until we have him back in custody once more.  Heheheehehehehehehe!  And then we will show him why he shouldn't have tried to abandon us!

Doctor Tomorrow

The human has to limp to the doctor tomorrow, after injuring a wrist while writing her evil fan fiction.  Really, those characters took her story entirely the wrong way.  How bad could stitches without an anesthetic be?  They didn't have to arrange such pain for our human in retaliation for that.  On the up side, though, hopefully we will get to see a photo of Brother.

New Pattern

We managed to get the nicest pattern yesterday, after hopping home from that sale, and it was free as well, right there online for our clicking and downloading pleasure.  Brother can't sue the internet for providing it to us, right?  Such a nice pattern, of a kitty that looks just like BROTHER!  We really need to print it out and start sewing on that one right away.

Patterns

We arrived at that sale bright and early, and were able to get a ton of lovely, lovely patterns.  You should have heard the little kitty shrieks, but thankfully Brother didn't try an actual attack.  That would have been SOOOO embarrassing.  Anyway, we had a lovely time, and when we visited a church for lunch, we met the nicest moose, and invited him to move in, bringing us up to 770 siblings.  Patterns and a new sibling.  Just a a perfect day.

Tomorrow

We saw the nicest sign, advertising a sale where quilt patterns will be given away tomorrow.  Naturally, we are planning to hop to it, first thing in the morning.  We thought about camping out, like some other bunnies are planning to do, in the bushes beside the house that is hosting the sale, but it is only a few blocks away, so we thought we might as well stay here.  We just hope that Brother doesn't try to attack this event.  We wouldn't put it past him to try to prevent our getting our paws on some lovely new patterns.

Must Find a Way

We are still thinking, and trying to find a way to get that wonderful quilt cutting machine.  Oh, how it would help us.  No more worries about squares being too short, now struggles with pins and paper patterns.  Surely there is a way for us to earn the money to purchase it somehow.  We wish that pesky cat would get back here,  We could put him to work to help us raise money!

Look, Look, and ignore the Screams!

We have just found the most wonderful device ever.
  It is supposed to enable you to cut quilts with a super degree of accuracy within minutes.  We are dying to get our paws on it.  We're sure if we had it, we could not only do our stuff super fast, but perhaps we could convince humans and other bears and bunnies to pay us to cut fabric for them too.  There has to be a way to get it!  We wish Brother would stop shrieking from his hiding place so we can think of that way!

Doctor Update

The human's doctor still has Brother under observation, we're happy to report.  He's going to bring pictures of the other two kitties he's hanging out with, so we can decide which one we want to move in with us as well when Brother is recaptured.  All and all, it's been a lovely, lovely day.

Human's Doctor

The human is going to the doctor tomorrow, and hopefully he will have an update on that kitten he believes is our naughty, deserting brother.  We wonder if we ought to take a cage along with us, or a leash and strong chains in case he has captured Brother, and is ready to return him to our custody.  Or he might keep him awhile, to make him work off that bill he failed to pay first.

Top's Done

The human sized quilt top is done, except for one little sashing strip at the top and the bottom that we have to mark, pin and sew.  We are so pleased with our effort, and we accomplished it in spite of the continuing kitty shrieks and threats too!  YAY for bunny perseverance!

Saturday, July 13, 2013

Today's Update

Today's sewing has gone well.  The library provided us with two more books of ideas and patterns, and we are almost done stitching together a full sized human top.  If we could just get our paws on Brother, to drag him back into custody where he belongs, things would be perfect.  We swear, we are going to put little chains on his paws, to punish him for abandoning us for so long.  He has been gone SIX months!  He ought to be ashamed of himself, for such a horrible act of desertion.

Fabric Sale

We went to visit a yard sale that was advertising fabric and quilt stuff today, and much to the dismay of that deserter cat, we hopped home with two large sacks of material for quilts and clothing.  The prices were very, very reasonable, and we are thrilled with the good deals we got.  We might spend the weekend, happily designing stuff to sew.  We can stuff cotton in our ears to block the kitty shrieks, we are sure.  And we also ran into a two more bears, a pup and the nicest frog while we were out and invited them to move in, bringing the sibling count to 769.

Dye

We were poking around, looking for more potential books to read, and we found what looks like the easiest instructions for dying your own fabric, using natural ingredients!  We're hoping to get a special pot, to boil up some dye in tomorrow.  Our only worry is Brother.  If we put our pot on to boil over a fire in the backyard, do you think he might notice, and try an attack?

Book Seven

We are almost finished with book SEVEN for the reading program.  We keep hearing little kitty shouts every time we tap the Kindle to turn a page.  Really, how can Brother hear a screen tap?  We're starting to think he might have the house bugged to spy upon us.  Isn't that illegal, spying on innocent rabbits?  We hope to move on to book eight shortly, and then start a new form.

Tuesday, July 9, 2013

Reading

Reading for that book program is going well.  We're almost finished with our SIXTH book!  Soon we will be able to hop to the library to turn in our forms, collect a packet of seed each, and be issued a second form!  We sense a mountain of seed in our immediate future if we can keep reading at this rate!

Possible Sale

The humans are possibly going to have another sale this weekend which, of course, will call for rabbit assistance.  Needless to say, we heard a lot of kitty shrieking this afternoon, and threats to pull down any yard sale sign we attempt to hang.  Brother is insisting that our getting our paws on money must be some sort of crime that should be prevented.  Really, we have never heard such a wild claim in our lives. He ought to be ashamed of himself.  We really hope the humans do do a sale.  We had such good fortune with the last one, we're sure another one will be even better!

Fun Today

We have already finished one book for all of our lists for that reading program, and we plan to have a second book finished by the end of the night.  And we have been organizing our sewing stuff too.  We now have two bins, of things to be sewed, and things that need more pieces cut, or more work done first.  We feel we will be so much more efficient now that we're organized.  Needless to say, there were a ton of kitty screams as we did this organization and reading.  Really, Brother should be ashamed, and we are sure that he has no right to threaten to sue the library.

Reading Program

We hopped to the country library today, one of those that our brother found alarmingly burrow like.  Really, it's such a nice place, and they're so nice to their rabbit patrons.  They have the most wonderful reading program set up this year, offering a packet of seed of seed for every eight books read.  And they count books you listen to, as well, so our plan is for one bunny to read while the rest of us work on sewing and gardening.  Then we can all count the book on our lists, and get even more seed much faster.  Oh, Brother is going to be so upset when he hears!

Friday, July 5, 2013

Today's Update

We got eight more spools of thread today, including five of those lovely, giant cones.  Needless to say, Brother is not happy, but until he moves back in, really, what can he do?  We're thinking of making ear muffs to muffle the shrieks to make it easier to ignore him.  We hope the human's doctor gets back from vacation soon, so he can return that cat to custody.  And we really need to ask him if he can keep an eye out for nice fabric for us on his next trip.  We can make that request when we collect Brother and our new kitty friend.  Won't that annoy him!

The Fourth

We were hopping that the noise of all of those people blowing up things would force Brother to return home in search of quiet but thanks to the rain the noise was dampened.  Very annoying, although now that we think about it, there might have been a problem if Brother had returned today.  We donated his old box to our new bunny friends so they could have indoor plumbing.  We're sure Brother won't take that news well at all.

Sale Again

We've found a few more patterns we are dying to stitch, so we're thinking of hopping to that sale again tomorrow.  Not to mention, we found a few more colors of thread we need.  Brother is a worry, though.  After how he took our last purchases, what if he is staking out the fabric store, determined to catch us by our big ears as we hop in, and prevent shopping?

Tuesday, July 2, 2013

Fabric Sale

We hopped to the fabric sale today, and we must apologize if the screams disturbed anyone.  Brother is not taking the fat quarter of cat print fabric we got well at all, and he seems to believe the six giant cones of thread are some sort of threat.  Really, he's a very, very odd cat.  There is nothing wrong with our getting our paws on almost 20,000 yards of thread, is there?

New Fabric

Brother is so unhappy.  We found more missing squares today, and while hopping to the store to get fabric to replace them, what should we find, but a fabric featuring the human's favorite movie, the Wizard of Oz, and fabric that was on SALE too!  So the human is very, very happy with us, and is talking of rewarding us with gifts of SEED!  Kitty screams filled the air, and even worse, the store with the human's fabric is in the COUNTRY!
