I love your quilt. I bought some old blocks from a garage sale and while working with them I started sneezing, my nose and eyes started itching, and I realized that several had cat hair on them. The worst ones I had to put in a plastic bag and throw away but some heavy doses of Benedryl got me through the rest. Now I just take it before I'm going to work on them. I can't wait to the quilt done so that I can wash it. To all cat lovers I apologize but I just can't imagine letting a cat on my quilts. BAD allergies.
