    I distract Kola with a purple tennis ball I keep in my sewing room.

    My cats love quilts and especially flannel ones.
    I have to lock them out of the sewing room or it is a disaster waiting to happen.
    One in particular (my avatar) likes to snag my fabrics and drag them around the house. They become his lovey's.

    He doesn't normally interfer with quilting. Sometimes he just decides that he wants a perticular one and wont leave it alone, even when it is being sewed, he pops up from in back of the machine, doesn't try to get the needle though. Guess he needs another one to himself, he has already claimed at least two. And he likes to eat the batting, but only the cotton, have to keep it put up so he can't get into it. What would we do without their love:~)??!!??

    I only have one that likes to be a pest, I have a large carrier I have put him in when he gets in the way. I tell him if he don't leave me alone I will put him in the cage, finally he is understanding what I'm saying and he goes off. I don't get a lot of sewing time and I want to get going on whatever I'm working on. He is 3 going on 4.

    I have six quilt inspectors, and every once in a while, one of them jumps directly in the middle of the hoop when I am hand quilting. I cuddle them for a couple minutes and take them over to the bed or couch and see if they will stay.

    I used to have that problem, wish I still did. Hubby says no more kitties, we have had to put two of them to sleep and he just can't deal with that anymore. We become way too attached. Mine used to sit and swat at the thread as I would sew or swat at the needle.

    I have a kitty like him, about 3 years old. Gets in the middle of everything. He isn't the only one, I have another who thinks his place is to sit on the ironing board when I'm working on blocks. Crazy cats. Love them though!!
    I love your WIP---beautiful!!

    Don't sweat the small stuff with your gorgeous QI, I just had to put one of mine to sleep a few weeks ago and would give anything to have him back wanting to help me! Beautiful quilt also!
