Re: Helpers while stitching/crafting?

My furbaby and his furbaby aunt tend to get in the way a lot. I had just started up cross stitching again and they think it's so cool and totally new. They'll fight over who gets to lay on the garbage bag I tote my current project around in and if my furbaby loses the fight he'll curl up on the sofa next to me and try to get the thread and needle as I'm stitching. Or his aunt might sulk and try to get between me and the arm rest of the sofa, which does limit mobility.

However, my little boy does help on occasion. My friends heard I was getting back into crafting so they demanded a photo of what I was working on. So I spread out the project and he came to lay on the corner so he could help show how large the piece actually was going to be.

This is my dog, Prosper. He likes to curl up/sprawl on my lap no matter what I'm doing (reading/stitching/playing games)
Doesn't usually photograph very well but I was able to get a good one with the inuyasha collar I got in the swap.

My rescue kitty Illidan loves to curl up on my cross stitching :)

Oh, yay! I wondered if you were able to use the collar. :) (I'm super behind on reading the forums, so I bumped an old thread. haha)
