Kitties and quilts.

Cats are attracted to quilts like magnets, they are not fussy. The quilt does not need to be quilted yet, just layered and basted.

Our cat knows when a quilt has reached this point and without fail she arrives to come and cuddle under or on top of a section of it. Here she is sleeping on our son's bed. Yestesday she tried to get herself on top of Tahoe. It will show cat hair and make the quilting a messy business. Needless to say kitty was not happy with me.

It is basted and the hand quilting got started.

It required the fluffy polyester batting for this one, something a longarm quilter would not use. It is neccesary for two reasons weight and the destination in the world where it will be going. It needs to be light and be able to breathe well, it gets hot in the southern hemisphere for nine months of the year!
