I’ve noticed a lot of my quilt pictures lately contain my new kittens. They just seem to love snuggling up with my projects, and I just can’t help but share the cuteness with you.

And after having lost so many pets in the last year and a half, I also wanted to take time to look back on those furry loved ones and enjoy their cuteness as well.

Are you ready for all the warm fuzzy feelings? I hope you enjoy this completely unnecessary “Pets and Quilts” post!

Ben was always laying under me as I sewed and would often be covered in thread.

Max and Ben were always posing for photos while hanging out in my studio.

And each of them got a turn at being the subject for Color Play Friday.

After we got Sparta, he and Max bonded on my By Your Side quilt.

And speaking of Sparta, he was a great self-appointed quilt inspector.

And Porkchop was my official rabbit-fabric approver.

Now that we have Phineas and Penelope, it seems like I always have a cat nearby while sewing.

Have a great weekend, friends!

Happy Sewing, ~L
