Paw Approved

My mother commissioned me to make a table topper for her sister for Christmas. We mailed off the table topper at the beginning of this month so that it would make it to its destination in plenty of time for Christmas. When my aunt called to say that the parcel had arrived, my mother told her to go ahead and open it and enjoy it. She did.

What we suspected would happen, in fact did happen. The topper is also being enjoyed by my aunt's roommate, Misty. This is a picture of Misty sitting on the table topper.

I think all of us who quilt are not surprised to see Misty attracted to this quilt. After all, when I was sewing the binding on this one, my cat was wanting to lay on it.

I would say this quilt has definitely been "paw approved"!

  6. Always important to have all members of the family's approval.

    I love the little pincushions - thanks for the link.

    How's the weather over there? We hardly got any wind this go round at all - and still have power so that's nice.

  7. Here's how the law reads. If the cat wants it, then it belongs to the cat. =)
