This is post #499, our weekly Feline Friday. However, since today is also the 17th, later today will also be our first monthly Hexie linky party!!! Yes - that means post #500 will also be today!!! And there are prizes!!!! Wootwoot.
Since it's a big hexie day here I thought I would share some photos of my hexie quality control officers. Some are repeats and some are new...
This is a typical pose for Midgie - she loves to rub her head on just about anything but she also loves to be on any quilt that's on the floor.
All three cats were close by when I was stitching sections together and pulling out papers.
Somehow Squeaks and Pepper both took turns holding down the hexie quilt while I was quilting. As I recall, Pepper stayed longer and didn't mind me swinging him around as I rearranged the quilt - I just never got his picture because I was having fun swinging him...
So there are my felines for the day - now it's your turn. Any feline related post is eligible but any link to your blog as a whole will be deleated. Let me know if you need help linking to just a post...I am working on a tutorial but not sure if it will be finished this weekend or not. The party is open until midnight next Thursday.
Remember I said there were prizes? Well FF has a prize today too!! When one of my LQS, Creekside Fabrics, in Arcade, NY, found out that I was hosting a giveaway for my 500th post, Sandy immediately offered me anything I wanted from the store for a giveaway! I was floored! Anyways, I havn't gotten the fabric from Sandy yet but I did request an adorable cat panel. As soon as I get the fabrics and make sure it's the same panel I already have...I'll post a picture and tell you more about Creekside.
But wait, I guess you want to know how to win??!! Well, let me count the ways! For every step that you complete, leave a seperate comment and I will use a random generator to pick a winner on August 31. Good Luck!

Cats on hexies ... good stuff. Interesting fact: my cat display is a video -- which I couldn't put as my linky pic -- I had to upload a different one (the one I sent you earlier) for the linky image! i'm intrigued by the back side of your hexie quilt. It's nearly as pretty as the front!
And I'm all good and linked up!

This was posted while I was babysitting and I had decided that there was no way I could go back and read everything I had missed and get caught up, but you kept prodding me, so here I am.
I can't imagine having a cat "helping" me machine quilt. It is challenging enough without one. : )
You know I am a follower!
