my Quilting Kitty is a star!
 

I entered this picture in a 'Quilting Kitties" photo contest sponsored by 'The Quilt Pattern Magazine'
he won 2nd place! all of the entrants were so cute---cats & quilts seem to go together--as many here know :D
i know mine sure thinks i quilt for him...and this quilt he really felt was created just as his personal hammock...
i'm pretty happy with him winning- he will get some special treats...I get some pretty cool prizes just for being (his) :thumbup:[ATTACH=CONFIG]378899[/ATTACH]

Too sweet! Congratulations Quilting Kitty! We found a kitten a month ago and he now spends his nights in my sewing room...i love sewing kittys!

I love my quilting buddy, too. He's a ginger cat.

aha, I see who rules the roost at your house, and it is not you. How cute

that's adorable!

how cute!!! He does deserve a special treat. :)

How cute!!!!

Congratulations! He is a cutie & worthy of a prize!

Aww that is just precious......make sure you give him lots of special treats :) Happy quilting.

He's a beauty! I have an all white kitty named Lily that spends a lot of time in my sewing room with me. That's her in my avatar, taking a nap on a shelf full of fabric.

Wow, great picture. Congratulations on your win.

I have two quilting kitties. They like to listen to the machine run when they slow down to listen, but most of the time they are wrestling or run through the sewing room playing chase.

That's too cute, mine also think it's a hammock....silly kitties...gotta love'em!!!!

So cute! My cat thinks I am making quilts just for him too. My parrot was of the same opinion. He liked to crawl under a quilt to nap. It was startling to climb into bed and discover that a parrot was already there.

Adorable! Gotta love cats, they feel so at home.

you would think he knows what a star he is---today he is strutting around here-getting into everything! i feel like it's going to be 'one of those days' with him constantly underfoot- in the way- being a pain! yup==gotta love 'em.
he's 12 years old & weighs about 15 pounds- a good sized cat- and some days acts like a kitten- this morning he's trying to walk across the computer- rubbing on it- knocking things off the table....hmmmmmmmm (DIVA) :)

You shouldn't have told him! Love the look on his face - like you are intruding on his personal space.

Very cute, looks like you woke him taking his picture.

What a cutie, and more treats,mmmmmmm

Congratulations! Yep, the cats think we are here to serve. And they are not far wrong. I have a small quilt that hangs in my dining room and my Bubbie Cat tries to get it down every so often.

there was a whole prize package! from various sponsors---these are the ones i won...[TABLE]

My quilting buddy is my dog Charlie. She thinks that the quilts all are hers for blankets to lay on. I sandwich my quilts on the floor and she just comes over and lays down and watches. Unfortunately she is not a little dog. She is a labadoodle and takes up a large portion of the quilt not to mention I can not keep the quilt tight so it ia not wrinkled.LOL

awhhhhh- that sure makes me smile :)- i had a loving chocolate lab for 14 years who laid right under my sewing table when i sewed- always right there- when i got a machine that would start as soon as you stepped on the foot pedal i had to learn to ALWAYS turn the machine off when i stood up- or she would lay on that pedal & make it sew, sew, sew! she also would lay across any quilt i dared to lay out on the floor...she was close by my side for many good years (she was only 4 weeks old when i rescued her) I miss her every day! Kimba cat misses her too- he (adopted) some of her habits after she passed- he now runs to the door when anyone comes (he used to go hide under the bed) he flops down & sighs when he isn't getting the attention he thinks he should be getting & he shakes/scratches his collar & makes the same sound the dog's tags used to make...I don't know if he's just missing her too- or if he thinks if he acts like her enough i won't be tempted to bring home another one :)

Love that pic....I have three cats, but none are allowed in my sewing world. I do l/a for others so I really can't have them (cats) lying on the tops, or even worse on the quilt set up.........anyway, they have the rest of the house to lounge around in. One of them will lay outside of the door of my sewing world waiting for me to come out....this is the one who is a "tree cat"--always looking up and has gotten herself up into the rafters between the basement unfinished and finished section and crawled around there for awhile..........that was a frightening experience for me and her...but, did it stop her...oh no she keeps looking up for a tree to hang onto!!!!!

I'm so glad he lets you use his long arm once in a while. He's adorable.

Way to cute!!! Congratulations Quilting Kitty!! I have always been a dog person, (allergic to cats), but now I am starting to be allergic to my dog. Maybe my cat allergies will go away and I can get a cat when my dog passes on.
Cats and be so cuddly!

How precious and congratulations !!!

I have made pillows for my cats and have them on the floor. They usually sleep on the couch if no one is there. But if I have a quilt in some sort of progress on the table, Rambo is up there.

Congratulations to both of you!

Congrats on your now famous kitty. He is a pretty baby!

Congrats! He is a cutie! :)

He's adorable congratulations! My tabby manx loves my fabrics and quilts too especially when they are in boxes. He's hopelessly addicted to boxes! They add so much to our lives!

Congratulations. I would say that your cat has excellent taste in quilts. Both are very beautiful.

Well, I just had to show you Tommy, he is my quilting kitty. He owns about 5 quilts now. My avatar is him!

Congrats on 2nd place. Darling picture, shame he's so shy. lol

Congrats on the win.

Don't forget to charge for the cat scan.

lol

Wonderful picture and great looking cat!!

How cute! I have 2 little kitty helpers. They love to be in the middle of whatever I am working on.

Awwwwwww I don't have kitties any more, and I miss them.......
