Amy's Army Signature Quilt
Designed by Wanda Krause for @BoSoxAmy Family
with contributions by #AmysArmy on Twitter
Hi Pals,
Do you remember awhile ago when I talked about so many twitter pals coming together to help @MaggieTkat and @ParkerTKat's mom put together a signature Quilt for the family of @SeabassCat (who has since crossed OTRB)? That family lost all their belongings in a fire about 4 months ago in Kansas.
Wanda (Maggie and Parker's human mom) finished the top of the quilt and it is now being quilted and put together by a very good quilting friend of hers. It should be ready to be shipped out to Seabass Cat's mom and dad very soon.
Wanda entered that quilt in a quilt show that one of our Twitter friends told her about. If she should win a prize, she plans to give that prize to the woman that is machine quilting this for her since she isn't charging for her service.
Now we need YOUR help. Could you take a few minutes out of your busy day and go over to the website, which is a quilt shop, listed beloiw and leave a comment to cast your vote.
Quoted from Wanda:
"OK folks. We have a whole weekend to vote for Amy's quilt! Here are the rules: http://lilypadquilting.So, all you need to do is leave a comment at the above blog that says:
Cat on quilt or cat themed quilt: # 99
EQ pet theme quilt: #99
If a prize is won, it goes to our machine quilter since she's quilting for free. Us Twitter folks just want the bragging rights! I have read each entry, and our story is unique. Comments on my blog are incredible, most comment on the story and the obvioius love we have.
If you could help spread the word, it would be greatly appreciated. Also, the winning certificate will be a great addition to the quilt appraisal!"

If you would like to leave a personal note for Wanda, you can do so on their blog; http://krusekats.blogspot.com/ This quilt is a real work of love and means even more now since @SeabassCat has passed on.
Thanks pals.

We'll go over and vote. Thanks for letting us know.
Thanks for your kind words of condolence on the loss of my mother. I never truly understood what the loss of one's mother meant, but it is a little more bearable knowing such kind people such as yourself. Thanks so much for being there. Take care and God bless you.
I haven't forgotten we need to post about the award you gave us.

Hey Mario, Jet here.
We tried so hard, we voted and they said we were too late. :( So sorry.
Thank you for putting such kindness out there, Mom really appreciates that.
Thank you again for visiting our blog and expressing such kindness on the loss of our sweet Fluffy.
Glad we can visit for and support another of your kind efforts.
Hey Mario! I was pumped to have you visit today! You know, I am just an ordinary "moggy" -- in other words--a plain old feral mutt kitty. It was Glogirly who maded me a king (I liked that!) and then Punapippuri, who seems to be a King also (but I dunno how he got to be one) maded me a PRINCE in Finland too.
You know, you could EASILY be a member of Royalty as well, and I think your Human starting to refer to you as SIR Mario is a good start. I think she should begin right away!
Sir Mario--it has a nice ring to it, don't you think?
We just went over & voted!
Nubbin wiggles,
Oskar
