On July 25th we welcome a Japanese exchange student into our family for the next year. We're very excited except for one problem: he'll be staying in my sewing room. Well, I shouldn't really call it my sewing room since no actual sewing is done in that room. It's really just my fabric stash closet. I have so much fabric I need an entire bedroom to store it.

How funny, and how nice of you to foster those fur babies. Mine is 17 YO and slowing down and he is fluffy just like your B&W one in your picture. Bet those kitties love those blankets LOL.
Love your name, Cute!
Let me know if you have any more questions...l may be able to make a tutorial of this on one of my blogs( on this site). BTW l've done tutorial blogs on binding scallops, prairie points, and excersize mat using left overs... Just go to my page & go thru the blogs.
Kitty, about the QAYG method w/o sashes...
1. quilt ea. block , but not the outer 1"
2.with right sides together , and including batting, but not backing, sew 2 blocks together at a time 'til row is complete.
3.from back, fold backing of one block under( overlapping neighbour's seam allowance) blind st. in place. Repeat for entire row.
When all rows complete, repeat to form columns. You sew only through backing when doing the handsewing, or you can't sew the columns properly.
A shortcut of this is to use the method, but do 1/4 of your quilt at a time. Still involves hand sewing. Lastly you go in and complete the SID sewing between blocks...but by then it's easy, as all is stable.Try it on something small & see how it works:)
the hugger...
