This is our cat Gypsy on my newest quilt......Doesn't she look happy? No? Well, that's because I had just woken her from a sound nap. She's clearly saying, "Excuse me, I was taking a nap here if you don't mind."
This is a Stars quilt that my friend Joanne gave me yesterday - isn't it a beauty?!?
She can't remember for sure, but she thinks she got the blocks in a yard sale at our guild one year. She's been working hard this year to finish up some old UFO's, so she pulled out the old blocks, put them together, added some borders and quilted it.
This picture really shows her beautiful quilting. She had planned to give it to charity, but I loved it so much that she gave it to ME!!! You all know how much I love scrappy, and this quilt sparkles with scrappy goodness! Yes indeedy, I'm a lucky girl to have such wonderful friends!!! Thanks Joanne!!! You know I will treasure it! =^..^=
Once Gypsy got over her irritation with me for waking her, she decided that the quilt was a pretty good place to take a bath too....
A lady must have clean hands at all times! |
Gotta get those ears really clean ..... |
A clean belly is SO important!!! |
And let's not forget those nether regions! |
Can a girl get a little privacy here????? |
Hope you're enjoying all the beautiful pets in the Pets on Quilts Show over at Lily Pad Quilting. If not, you're missing out!!! Hop on over and see for yourself :*)
Hugs & Blessings,

Oh, boy, Gypsy doesn't hesitate to let her feelings be known! : )
ReplyDeleteAnd that quilt--wow! What a wonderful gift from your friend!! Lucky woman!
You crack me up! Or rather Gypsy does. She does speak her mind, now doesn't she??? She looks a bit like my Lucky, but I can never get a picture of her either.
ReplyDeleteYour stars quilt is Soooooo pretty. Lucky you!! You really do have some wonderful friends -- but I know that you deserve them. I love scrap quilts too as you know. I think I have one similar that is an old quilt. Will have to check it out.

I think you have lost the quilt to the cat! She sure does look comfy all curled up there sleeping.
ReplyDeleteShe is gorgeous, but is definitely not impressed by you invading her privacy with a camera in your hand.
