A Quilting Cat

I only had one side of binding to finish stitching down on my yellow & blue quilt. So last night I laid the quilt on the floor by the tv, left to get my thread, pins & scissors and came back to find a little black tail peeking out of my quilt!

My cat loves to be close to where I am working. She discovered I was moving from the sewing machine to the floor and left her previous post to join me. She looks a little stunned as I lifted the cover of her hiding place. What is it about cats that they love to sit directly on what you are stitching? :)
