Well Our Brie hasn't been with us long enough to go into my sewing room but when my poodle was alive he used to come down and supervise my sewing .. He would jump up on me to see how I was sewing, then go over and look at whatever else was in the room, then find a pile of scrap fabric to lay on !LOL the cat used to just watch from the highest she could to irritate him by reaching down and putting her paw on his head.. it was funny to watch
