Old man fight!

Varonys and Neloth do not get along. Not on mortal enemies level or anything, but they just really don't like each other.

As promised, here are the final completed photos of my pizza quilt. The whole thing only took me 1 week of planning/designing and fabric shopping, and 2 weekends to sew by hand*

*while sick and lacking the energy to do anything else

Close enough?

My cat was a little shy about using the quilt at first. (He's like that sometimes. I made him a doily last year, and he spent like 3 days gingerly walking around it on the coffee table to avoid stepping on it before realizing it was for him to chill on.)

I first tried giving it anchovies on top but he didn't seem interested:

So then I put the quilt on the dining table (which he is usually allowed on because I eat on the kitchen island and use the dining table as a crafting desk) and plopped the cat on top of it.

That seemed to get the message across, maybe a little too well. He instantly got comfortable and wouldn't let me pick him up off the quilt when I wanted to move it off the table.

Cody also seems to think the olives are like a smaller version of my hair scrunchies, which I'm constantly losing because he thinks they're his toys. He keeps pawing at them and trying to pull them off the quilt even though they're firmly stitched down.

Eventually he wandered off and I claimed the quilt back. The whole point of this was to make something for the cat to knead on instead of me, so I put the quilt on my bed and then made like I was getting ready to call it a night.

And sure enough, he jumped up and started roaming around like "hey, something's different about this place...?"

I'm not sure if he ended up kneading on the quilt because I fell asleep, but this is what I woke up to this morning:
