Hello everyone. This weekend I pieced a nice (I thought) summery kaleidoscope quilt. I had it folded up on a diningroom chair ready to go up to the longarm room. My quilt inspector usually approves of my quilts and lays on them to test their softness. However, she obviously didn't like this one as she horked up a hairball on it!! (see the wet wrinkled edge where I cleaned it?) Anyone in the market for a critical quilt inspector?

The quilt is beautiful. The quilt inspector looks contrite (not) and is just giving their opinion (laughter). What a hoot. All is well :-). Thanks for sharing a good laugh.

Unless you caught her in the actual act, you are presuming she is guilty...her face says otherwise Mom.

She also could have been so overwhelmed at how nice it was she was tickled sick about it.

I have to give my inspector Friskies Hairball Treats every day or I get 'presents'. Petsmart is where I get mine.

LOL, ok I love the term "horked up a hairball". It is SO fitting because they do make that hoooork hooooork hoooork noise just before depositing the treasure. hehehe.

both kitties are gorgeous. Looks like they may have some ragdoll in them if not all raggie. I don't think the hairball incident was any critique though. The quilt is lovely. Hopefully the hairball won't leave a stain. Regular brushing/combing cuts down a lot on the hairball deposits.
