A Gizzy from Parker

This lovely Gizzy quilt arrived November 24, 2008. At that time our computer was down, so we're a bit late (what an understatement!) making this post.

But first and foremost, we want to tell you what a wonderful surprise it was to receive this -- last year. Millie's mom Lynne made this Orange Crush Gizzy to help raise medical funds for Moki. Perfectly Parker won it, but asked Millie's mom to send it to us. Wasn't that sweet? We were thrilled. It was cold in November, December, January, February, and much of March. We could have used another Gizzy. But Jan said, noooooo, not yet, we need to keep it clean and in the original package so you don't forget to post the photos.

We were going to show you how beautifully it was folded and wrapped in lace ribbon, but Jan suddenly decided it was time to start catching up and .... Well, she cut the ribbon and laid out the Gizzy so she could take photos to add to the ones she took when it arrived.

Only, she couldn't find the original photos. Anywhere. Not on the computer. Not on a CD. But...but...but... Her brother painstakenly rescued all her lost photos. Where did they go now?

Nowhere. After a frantic search, she then read her note on the package: Photograph & post to JFF & Lynne's Gizzy blog. Oh, yeah, that's why Jan saved it with the ribbon intact and wouldn't let us use the Gizzy. For 6 months! And it was cold most of those months.! But back then there wasn't any use to take pictures, since we didn't have a computer . Jan says she's sorry, but we're wondering if we can vote her off the computer. (That's a pretty big blooper, Jan!)

Samaritan admires the back of the Gizzy. A pretty orange.

Rusty is the first to quality test it.

Yep, comfortable to sit on and look to left or right.

No, Sam, I'm not moving so you can climb up here and sit on it. You'd collapse the stand, anyway.

Percy: Yes, Sam, I know you like your comforts, but it's my turn to test this Gizzy.

Yep, soft enough to flop onto my side from a standing position.

I vote we give it a 10 for looks and comfort.

Thanks, Parker! Now that Jan has finally stuck her pinky in the catch-up pile, we can use our "new" Gizzy.

Hey, waaaaaaaaaaaaait! Jan, that's a kitty Gizzy. Why are you putting it on Buddy's chair?

Kipling Loves Gizzy Quilts


Dear Mom Lynne and Millie,

Thank you for our beautiful Gizzy Quilts! They arrived this afternoon and Kipling immediately claimed both of the quilts. (see photo) I reminded him that he had to share with the other kitties so he suggested that they (there's nine other kitties) could share the orange Gizzy with him but the purple was reserved for his exclusive use. (sigh) I will have to talk to him again.

Thank you again for the beautiful Gizzy Quilts! We are delighted with them!!!

Warmest regards,

Midori and kitties

Isis got a Gizzy Quilt!

We got something very special today. Darling Millie sent us a beeuteeful Gizzy quilt! We have been quite well behaved about it. When mom opened the package, we all took turns sniffing the good smells. But in the end it looks like Isis has put the major claim on it. She hasn't moved off it for 6 hours so far!

Thank you Millie and Mum!

Triple Play!

We went to my MIL's house after dinner last night to deliver the beautiful Gizzy Quilts for Star and Rufus. Of course, step one was to "find the cats" ~ they are so used to living with just one person that they're extremely absent whenever anyone else is around (under the bed is their preferred hiding spot).

Took a little while to explain the 'Millie Magic' factor to MIL ~ she just couldn't get her head wrapped around why I, as a quilter, would send away for kitty quilts...


This is Star, swaddled in her Gizzy Quilt (not a happy kitty at this point).

However, after about 30 minutes and a few kitty treats strategically placed at the center of her Gizzy Quilt, Star did venture forth!

Meanwhile, DH had captured Rufus ~ this is how Rufus spends his evenings, curled up against MIL on the couch (reportedly, when we are not there, she has one cat on each side) ~ now Rufus can enjoy his Gizzy Quilt and get his ears scratched...

We had given our Angel her Gizzy Quilt just before we went over to MIL's house ~ this is where she was when we left and she hadn't moved a whisker when we came home. Angel adores her new Gizzy Quilt! She was curled up in it again this morning before I left for work ~ awesome!

Thanks Lynne and Millie ~
