    @ Stacey- thanks for the compliments. That TW quilt is one i kept for myself. The pix of the cats aren't the best for seeing what they really look like. I'll have to find some better ones to post.

    I love cats and enjoyed the pictures. I'm just not good enough at housekeeping to have one inside. I don't like to sit in a chair and then have cat hair on my clothes. Some people are so neat and clean you would never know there was a cat in their house, but I'm not that organized. I've had outside cats but they don't live as long. My daughter has a great solution. She lets her cat outside in the daytime, brings him inside each evening and puts him on a leash attached to the leg of the coffee table. He gets loved and petted a few hours, then goes to the closed in porch for the night.

    Only a couple of pics. Patches usually doesn't bother my quilting stuff. She generally lies just outside the door of my sewing room guarding the contents and me.
    When I made her quilt she did seem to know that was just for her.
    Last pic is an unflattering pic of me and both cats, Patches and Missy.

    Patches on her own quilt

    Patches and Missy-Missy's gone now, but never got on any quilts.

    puck116-I used to have a cat named Snickers who looked just like your patches. She was a good cat but when she was 13 , she just quit eating. we had tests run and tried everything to get her to eat. I fed her with an eye dropper for 2 weeks, but couldn't afford to do more tests. Sadly we had to put her to sleep. It was so hard b/c there was not a viable reason like when our other cat had cancer. It's so hard when our pets pass on.

    Our cat loves lying in the sun, but likes to cover her eyes.

    I have a Miss Kitty too! She is a small, ugly, calico but is so good natured.
