They are all so gorgeous! I love how some like to 'help' and some like to observe. You are extremely talented. Being a painter, I haven't a lick of talent when it comes to sewing and I'm always in awe of those who can make quilts or sew slipcovers or do anything that requires needles and thread!

As an adult I haven't been a cat person, but as a child I had cats. I never had a longing for a ferret although he is really cute. The quilts are a whole other topic. Anyone who has attempted a quilt understands every challenge you described and can appreciate square/not square, colors running, and how beautiful each one is all by itself. Love the Christmas quilt but the soft little squares one is gorgeous as well. You are one talented lady whether you are crafting or entertaining the grandkids. I can hardly wait to see what is next. :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8728701887751829600.post-13049267111897887272013-08-19T23:47:51.666-04:002013-08-19T23:47:51.666-04:00What a prize-winning post!

We have two, one was a stray cat and we decided to take him in as he kept getting into fights and was in a very bad way. He has been with us for 5 years now and is the most loving cat! The other does her own thing, she doesn't like to be fussed but occasionally lets us pet her. She likes her space! They all have such unique personalities. I loved all of your photos. :) xSarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11840730429189922567noreply@blogger.com
