My M'Gennis loves to be in the sewing room with me. He has finally lost interest in the needle and the take-up lever BUT he like to sit and watch me sew. When I'm finally used to him sitting quietly, he takes off with the thread from the back of the machine!
He lays on the fabric I'm trying to sew or wants to lay "in" the machine (harp). Or where I'm trying to press something on the ironing centre. One day I ironed a spot away from the ironing work centre and put him on it to convince him to have a nap ...
