OK everyone ... have to fess up!!!
The cat is not real!! It's one of those fun fake ones that are pretty realistic ..... and over the years has fooled people as the real thing. With all the Quilt Inspectors that get shown, I just had to include it.
The dog didn't quite make it into the pics ... to the right of the Stained Glass quilt. Yes, a lifesized black lab in a soft plush ... again very realistic from the distance.
Yes, I'm a little warped!!! :)
