Hello to One All!
Sorry to hear about your pillow. that's happened to me a few times...to the
point of me contemplating making myself a pair of cat fur slippers. They seem
to know when the bobbins are not pinned down. I have 5 cats that I've trained
to leave my pillows alone. A good rap on
Oh dear, Beth!! I can sympathize...
I learned that if the pillow isn't right in front of the chair, the cat
isn't much interested. I've also learned that I must cover the
pincushion as well as the pillow!! When my cat was first adopted, he
jumpted onto the pillow (covered, thank
I was told when that happened to keep the pillow upside down and give it a
gentle shake before turning it up the right way as this releases a lot of the
threads that are tangled up among the pins. It really does work and saves a

My old dog (long since gone, I'm sorry to say) used to enjoy flipping my

I've been shuddering as I read these emails. The horror of that
moment of seeing the pillow upside down has never left me. Yes, that
was a Chantilly bow tie - long since often
Oh my goodness
That is the *major* reason that I never take the complex laces with lots
of bobbins to a demo... I like to use simple laces that are still
pretty enough to attract attention.
Sorry David, but I hope you've learned your lesson!! (vbg...)
