Since I have so many different pieces of green fabric, I just might have to get a few more patterns! When the patterns first came out I saw a number of them all done up at a quilt shop. They gave me the idea of all the FMQ. That really seems to bring them to life!

My LQS is featuring these. They have made up kits and sell the patterns. One of the gals who works there has made them all and they have them displayed. I'm not a cat person and I still think they are cute!!

Rita - the name is just a coincidence. I found an olive green variagated thread at JoAnns when it was on sale. It blended in real nice with the greens. Some of the other stitches were on my machine so I tested some out first for the size. I just tried keeping the FM in the direction of how the fur would go.

I have several of the Garden Patch Cats patterns and have actually done one - Tater Puss. It turned out really, really cute! Quilter's Paradise in Escondido, California, has many of the patterns available both as patterns only or as kits with laser cut pieces. I only bought the patterns - the kits were too rich for my blood! I'm not sure what I'm going to do with the block that I've completed (or with any others I decide to make), but they defiitely work up cute!!!!
