Cici's Adventures in the Sewing Room

Hey!  It's me!  My name is .......Cici!  The mom told me this was short for Cecilia, my original name.  She says the name Cecilia makes her think of the old Simon and Garfunkel song, Cecilia, You're breaking my heart.......  

We spent an afternoon in the sewing room the other day and I learned all sorts of great stuff!

 Strips of fabric tied to chairs are great fun to play with!

Look what we made!  This is one of three pillows for me to sleep on.  This one was my favorite.  It has replaced the folded up blanket on the back porch I was sleeping on.  I finally realized that blanket was really for the DOG!  Disgusting!  I'm so glad to have my own pillow.  I wondered why we used polar bear fabric for it, but it's really soft and since I'm bigger than the polar bears, I guess it's ok.

I was really helpful while we were sewing.  I tried to arrange the fabric strips and when she was sewing, and then discovered that she was doing "air sewing" and got upset and tossed an empty spool on the floor, I chased it and tried to catch it.

One thing did happen that I found rather disturbing.  She placed a little cup of water on the ironing board and explained that she would use it in the iron when she needed steam (whatever that means).  I got up on the ironing board to investigate this and discovered that there was a kitten trapped inside the iron!  It kept watching me from inside the iron.  I got to thinking that pouring water in the iron wouldn't be good for the kitten, so I started drinking the water.  Since I didn't get all the water drunk, I slipped back into the sewing room the next morning and just knocked the cup over to get rid of the water!  I still haven't figured out how to let that kitten out of the iron. It just looks back at me all the time.  I had fun in the sewing room, but I'm going to be careful not to get trapped in the iron!
