- I’m on Instagram. Follow a catlady? @boredandcrafty
- Perhaps one of the worst things about living with me is my need to organize. It is always on overdrive. I just don’t know where and when to stop. I want to say I blame Pinterest but that’s also where I found this fantastic photo display idea for a finicky girl like me.Wire hangers? Uh, yeah. Today they display my collection of pretty Japanese sewing magazines. When I get tired of these covers, I’ll clip photos. And when I get tired of those, I’ll clip drawings.

- This is Dwarf. He was a stray. We spent several days feeding him right outside our neighbors’ gates. We cracked after less than a week and took him in.
- We have 5 cats! Can you hear me panicking? No? Well, I’m not. Dwarf is an absolute sweetheart. He was hissing and growling before we took him in but now he’s a total people cat. Also, he has appointed himself “Buddy for Life” of our Siamese cat, Chino. They are so adorable together.

- So it’s my birthday this Saturday. But you know what’s cool? I’m the Crafty Superstar this week over at Cut Out + Keep. Birthday week awesomeness, yes?
- By the way, some of my earlier tutorials are posted on Cut Out + Keep. They vanished from this blog when it “got sick” a year or so ago.
- My guitar bag tutorial is also on Make Projects. Make has a guideline (very Wiki-like) so the tutorial there is easier to understand.
- And speaking of free tutorials, check out this ebook on 11 sewing patterns. The projects included are perfect for sunny days; what could be more perfect?

I can so relate to your cat post. I have three inside cats and have tamed two ferals that still live outside. But when I say live, I mean I’ve made them beds and they live on my front porch. My inside kitties and my outside kitties are friends who talk and kiss through the screens all the time. My friends call me the cat lady but what’s wrong with that?

Dwarf has beautiful eyes!
Sometimes I wish I could pet cats. Each time I try, the cat goes away from me! Haha must be because I’m more of a dog person.

Haha I have a feeling they can tell if a person is a cat person :P

happy early birthday, meream! i just realized i’m exactly 1 week younger than you…here’s to 29 being a super awesome year for both of us! =)
