Today begins the Pets on Quilts show over at Snoodles a.k.a Lilypad Quilting. Pets on a quilt, quilts with animal themes, etc... I know you have to have something to share.
My fur babies just did not want to co-operate on this. I trained them too well I guess as they are not allowed on any quilts. I put quilts on the couch, beds, opened rooms they aren't allowed into to spread out quilts, quilts on chairs. NOPE! As soon as that quilt came off the couch and I threw that blush 'horse' blanket on it - boom - there they were. Bella having a 'preening' and Moe out like a light.
Other Catagory
So I have a stand-in. One of my chain-saw bears with my 'Bear in the Woods' quilt (see the bears in the triangles?) that was done for the Sliced Apples Quilt Along. Not quilted yet as it is "in line" on the pile and I have a nice chocolate brown blushy with bear paw prints in mocha for the backing. I don't think I will use any batt as the blushy is really thick - a new process for me.
Be sure to hop over with Paddington to see all the entrants.
Sewingly Yours,
Sharon

Thanks for the shout out, Sharon! Love your kitties....they are exceedingly well behaved! Moses will just nap wherever he wants to, and when he hears me coming down the hall, he jumps down and plays innocent! Thanks for joining in the fun - and hope vending goes well!
A great quilt...and a great 4-footed friend in the pic! Thanks for sharing!
Love the quilt!
Such sweet felines! Love the quilt...and the bear counts :-)
Didn't want to play along. That is so typical of cats. Don't you just love them : )
Your kitties look very comfortable :-) Love your scrappy quilt !
My cats are always on a quilt until I want them to be to take a picture, although Muffin did cooperate one time!
Ha....they are well trained to stay off the quilts. The quilt is beautiful with the bear!
Gotta love a bear quilt! Looks great even before it's finished! :)
You can lead a cat to a quilt but you can't make him sit...
Great quilt...cute story...you've trained them too well!
Cute kitties. You can come and train mine!
I can just hear them....."just wait til she leaves....and then we will try out the quilt".........the bear quilt is lovely.....pretty colors you chose........

Great photo of your cats at the top of your post. I don't think that there would be anyway to keep Mars off my quilts- she really does think they are hers to check out.
Thanks for participating in the blog hop.

i am amazed! I was never able to train my cat - but he trained me very well. The quilt is lovely1
Too funny! My Angus is the same way. EVen if I have a big quilt out on the floor, he will prance around it! The border really sets the quilt off! I love piano key borders!
great pets you have well trained...lol
You are just tooooooooooo funny!!
Hahahaha! Love the stand in! Thanks for making me laugh! (impressively trained kitties too!)
The quilt is very pretty, as is the photo of the well-trained cat models!
Trained pets? What a concept!! Need to know the secret :) Jax is on a 5 minute delay responding to anything other than bribery (food!).
I love your pile of fur babies and lucky you they don't mess with your quilts. That quilt is beautiful, I love the color scheme. Thanks.
So funny. Bella and Moe like their horse blanket and that's that. Now what category is the chain saw bear going in:) The quilt, of course, is beautiful.
I love your fuzzy critters and the wood one too!

My cat is similar to that. She won't lay on a quilt unless it isn't for her! Or I put it in an inconvenient spot like my sewing chair.
Super quilt. Love it. Your 'stand in' did a good job! lol.
Wow, you did a great job training your cats!
Cats can be so temperamental with it comes to photos - lol. Love your quilt and your bear is the perfect stand-in. Good luck with your vending!!
"I trained them too well I guess as they are not allowed on any quilts."
I protest on behalf of your cats. Meanie! (LOL)
Too funny, how do they seem to know? Love your quilts
I can't seem to train my pets to do anything they don't want to do in the first place! If there is a quilt around to lay on, there they are. Love the quilt.
Yes, cats and posing...that is just not going to happen. Your quilt is very pretty.
Hi! Wonderful quilt! Wow, you have trained your cats so well! x Teje
Hehehe. I guess your fur babies don't want to get in trouble even if you were giving them permission.
Too funny!!! Thanks for my morning chuckle about your fur babies. I love your quilt!
Beautiful quilt and kitties! Sharon, you have to come to my house and train my kitties!!
What well-behaved (and beautiful) cats. No need to reply but thatnks for your comments on Django
What slackers! At least pose and let a little tail fur brush off on the quilt! MOL! great quilt, too.
Well your stand-in pet did a great job of modelling for you.
Thanks for the chuckle. I wish my fur buddy were as well trained as yours are. Lovely quilts.
Nice! I like the "nature"-colors of this quilt.
Love the statue.
For the pure whimsy of the stand in, this is a favorite post.
Love this but is this in the cat category or other??
Love your quilt and your cat stand-in.
You'd think cats would be easier than bees -- wish I could get my daughter's cat that well trained! :-)
Ha ha ha!! Cats being true to their nature. Uncooperative! Lovely quilt and lovely cats!
Your animals are so well trained - and your quilt is beautiful. Love the bears.
I'm impressed with your well behaved cats. Ours does everything you tell him not to. The quilt is great.
Lovely quilt!
Too cute and so true!
CATS! So finicky.
Love your stand-in!
Thanks for joining in the fun, Sharon.
