Feline Friday


My lovely Monthly Doll Swap partner, Vickie, really took note of my blog posting of Moe and my trouble keeping him off my Little Black Dress fabrics while working on the Starburst Quilt Along.  


Look at this cute little pincushion kittie and the homemade quilter's stillettos - love it!


And the cutest little quilt made from Little Black Dress bits.  And Moe sitting on my pieces - how funny is that? 


The culprit in question - looking for his favorite pile of fabric.  Sorry Moe - the quilt top is done and off to the long armer.


And since Bella hasn't been seen in action, well they usually fight for this sleeping spot - the top of my old quilting rack.  I wrapped it in an old sleeping bag and then topped with serape' woven blanket.  Moe was there first and then the Queen took over.  After this photo, she literally stretched and stretched until she shoved poor Moe off.

Linking up with Sarah's Feline Friday

I plan on pulling that scrap bin out again and playing all weekend - enjoy yours.

Sewingly Yours

Super cute pincushion.....so perfect for you. Love the little hanging too. The cats looks so comfortable that I would like to stretch out and visit a while too.

Love the kitty cat pincushion, I nerver can keep my babies off the fabric, I just keep a lint roller around. My kids are starting call me "Lint roller will travel".

What great kitty gifts! My cats try not to be nonchalant about taking over sleeping spots too!

Katie said...

such great swap projects. Kitties are the best and worst quilt helpers some times -- and it looks like you have to prime examples there.

Vickie really knows you well! Love the little quilt!

Now that is just the cutest little black dress wall hanging and cat pin cushion I have seen.
I missed Moe the first time I looks at your post. He's behind the sewing machine! Your babies are just too funny. I love it when you post pictures and write about their escapades.

Adorable cat projects! I need to make a cat pincushion - yours is even grey like Tucker. Oh that Bella is a sly kitty isn't she?

Really adorable. I love it. And poor Moe for getting kicked off the sleeping spot. Poor fur baby.

Those are so cool! What a fabulous personalization for you. The kitty is adorable and the mug rug is brilliant. :D

What a great swap partner. She really finely tuned her quilt and "Doll" to mirror your feline's personality. Poor Moe, there can only be one queen.
