Grace Kelly and Cary Grant in “To Catch A Thief”
After over $50 million dollars worth of jewelry was stolen from the Carlton Hotel in Cannes in July 2013, I was reminded of Alfred Hitchcock’s spectacular film To Catch a Thief (1955). You ma…

Im still in love. This quilt is so therapeutic. Here are a few more of my main blocks. This one is just heavenly. I got to highlight a little piece of original Flea Market Fancy Barbells that I have been hoarding. It just seemed so appropriate in this quilt. And as I began to add the filler blocks, the blocks on the wall started to grow, and grow, and are looking awwwwesome (if I do say so myself). If you are as inspired by this pattern as I am, you can find it and all the other gorgeous Jen Kingwell Patterns at Westwood Acres!
...in which the blocks are finished! I had enough time to squeeze in one more stitchery marathon before my classes (and the boys' return from Camp All-Fun-All-The-Time-Grandparents). The gypsy blocks are done!! The assembly is going to be kind of a bear, but I'm up for the challenge. I want to finish the cutting this week so I can clear out my sewing area. I can't stand all the piles of fabric leaning and draping over every flat (and semi-flat) surface. I know "they say" that creativity is messy, but my left-brained self can only handle so much of it before I snap. So, photos! Square in a square with pinwheel centers (various sizes) Gypsy Wife "Square in a Square with Pinwheel Centers" blocks Bordered Square in a Square with Courthouse Steps (various sizes) Gypsy Wife "Bordered Square in a Square" blocks Square in a Square with Courthouse Steps (various sizes) Gypsy Wife "Square in a Square with Courthouse Steps" larger blocks Gypsy Wife "Square in a Square with Courthouse Steps" smaller blocks Square in a Square in a Square (4" finished) This one required a complete remake. The pattern called for the use of one of the small square-in-a-square blocks that I made yesterday, but when I added the third row of triangles and trimmed to 4 1/2", it was obvious that every one of the points would be cut off when I sewed it into the quilt. This is the Very Last Block. All of the others look very nice and very pointy. There was no way I could be happy with cutting off four points, even applying my typical "Can you see it from the back of a galloping horse?" metric. (Thanks, Lisa, for that one!) I drafted the whole thing out on paper and made a new one in less than ten minutes. Gypsy Wife "Square in a square in a square" block And that's it!
One airline seems to have found a solution for those bothered by the presence of kids on their flight. The company is testing a “child-free” seating zone, but there’s a catch.
Kurt Tutschek [Austrian digital artist] www.redbubble.com/people/tuku/works/614849-catch-a-fallin... I first saw this as a smaller blurry image. It took a while time to track down the original image and creator, so I decided to upload it. Google Images can do a custom "time range" search! I would love to see this reworked with textures.

Tycoon Canton Rourke, was beset and besieged - and all because of his neighbor, Janine Curtis. The woman was out to get him, he was sure of it. He'd come to Cancun, Mexico, with his daughter to relax, not catch bandits, track kidnappers or save the woman from any other fine mess she landed herself in! Her neighbor's opinion was not a secret to Janine. So she was determined to live down to his image of her while trying to ignore how her knees buckled every time he rescued her. Was she falling in love? The man was a mystery would a lifetime of love prove an answer?
