Every time I sit down I have a cat in my lap. Every time I sit down to sew, I get at least an attempt....until I stop her. One of my cats insists on being in my sewing room with me...if I shut her out she yeowlllls at the door until I let her in. If I turn away from my machine, she is immediately trying to jump into my lap. It's a true test of wills!! :roll:
