Oh, Grace, they just want to help. They need a job, like unwinding a spool of thread! I have a very helpful kitty in my sewing room, too!! He always sits right on the chair that my butt is heading for!!

LOL They are just helping! They don't think you have them lined up quite right. I have a couple of helpers, too. Boots especially likes helping me fill the catnip balls and catnip mice. I loose more of those darn things that way. And Misti Luna thinks she has to supervise every stitch that I make with the sewing machine... from my lap!

Cats are great helpers.

Aw, come on Grace...they thought you were sharing the fun. :) Dash (dog) always wants to get all the stuff out of the waste basket, old spools, scraps of fabric, etc. And sitting in the chair, of course! What a pretty quilt, who is it for? I have been over at my daughter's new place, painting these last few days. I have been taking Dash and he is doing incredibly well. I am surprised that he does not try to get into the paint or brush against the fresh paint. Doing this for years as a profession....I can tell you pet stories! :) lol

Oh yea, they are sooo helpful!!! even when I am typing....it is incredably tuff to type one handed whilst peddling a fur baby w/the other hand, actually more like restraining the furbaby who really wants to walk all over the keyboard! lol!
But, as big a pain as they can be, I wouldn't have it any other way.
The blocks are from an Autumn block swap(last year) and I am just now getting around to putting (trying) it together....
Oh & Karen, I too have "war stories" about trying to paint w/furbabies around....but their white fur does make for a nice canvase! lol!
Oh Tina, isn't catmint a Hoot???? my little Peekaboo goes nutzoid over it....

They're adorable! And what good helpers they are; rearranging your quilt for you. I think maybe they need a ball of yarn to keep them busy.

Grace the cat's are fantastic - just wait till you have a goat baby helping in the house. Monica as soon as the kids are old enough you can send them to my farm and I will teach them how to be a farmhand...
They will love to come back to you and help around the house.

Give those sweet fur balls a hug from me - do you save their hair? There goes the spinner in me - can not help myself..

Ohhh! Makes me want to squeeze them--in a good way! Little ones like that are oh-so-curious, and I love how they can make games out of anything and everything. Too cute!!!

Grace, I will come to your house and learn how to be a farmhand! I may not want to come back! I have to say that they are not too bad with helping it's just that Olivia always wants a hug when I am trying to type on the computer and they think it's a blast to lay on the fabric when I am trying to re-fold a bolt of it! I must say they are all a delight though!
