This is so fun! We all know our pets love our quilts. I actually think some of our pets think they're helping us out! My cat is no exception. We've had Lily since early December. She always seems to hang around the sewing machine when I'm sewing away. Or maybe it's because she likes the finished product! She thinks whatever I'm making is all for her to play on.
Not sure if you can see, but she grabbed a couple of her toy mice to keep her company! I had this quilt spread out trying to figure out how to quilt it. It's all pinned and I doubt the pins make it very comfortable. But she lay down on it and took a nice nap. Of course, I didn't disturb her. I waited for her to continue working on my quilting plan! Yes, she's spoiled!

I had this quilt laid out on the kitchen counter. I was marking it for quilting. Again, she hopped up and inspected my work! I hope she approved!
Wouldn't we be lonely without our furry friends? They're our favorite assistants! Head on over to Pets on Quilts and have fun viewing our four legged friends!
I see Lily likes to make sure everything's all right before letting you actually quilt your projects. She makes a great assistant! I love the light blue quilt with the colourful star and flowers.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much! She is certainly "involved" the minute I start sewing! Maybe she's helping get the wrinkles out when she sits on them??!!
Deleteyour quilts are fabulous! lily is one lucky kitty!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your kind words!
DeleteLily is a sweetheart and a great help! She is helping you make some gorgeous quilts :-)
ReplyDeleteThanks! She's always quite close to me when I'm sewing! Maybe she's looking for the right time to "help" me??
DeleteLily has been such a sweet addition to your family. Bet you didn't know when you picked her that she was a quilt lover too!
ReplyDeleteMaybe she wishes she could do some of the sewing herself! She does seem to like to see what I'm doing!
Deleteshe is a great quilt inspector..and so cute
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for the nice words and for visiting my blog!
DeleteYour quilts are gorgeous and you're so lucky to have such a wonderful assistant. You're right, what would we do without them?
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! Pets are so fun to have around. I would be lost without her!
DeleteAwwww, how cute is that! I no longer have my kitty (Clara Schumann--Schumie for short), but she used to sit with her head on my foot pedal-foot when I sewed--I guess she liked the up/down motion--aren't they just too funny? Love those quilts--very fresh looking and pretty...hugs, Julierose
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Julierose! Schumie must have loved that! Lily chased border strips today! I had to take one out of her mouth!
DeleteWonderful assistant. She really sets off your quilts purrrfectly.
ReplyDeleteI must agree with you! She's a great help to me! (Sometimes!)
DeleteHello Rosemary! I have met Lily in earlier posts. Funny - they just think every quilt is just for them. Lily sure looks like she is owning those gorgeous quilts!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Joanie! She follows me all over the house so whatever I'm doing becomes her project as well. She's so funny to watch!
DeleteThey are so funny...our cat also seems to appear out of nowhere when I am just about ready to baste or want to have a look at the overall appearance...and like yours just makes herself comfortable. Beautiful animal and beautiful quilts.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Karin! They are fun to have around. I never feel alone now that the kids aren't living at home anymore.
