    Love the saying "if your happy and you know it, take a nap"
    That made me laugh so loud, my husband came running! :lol:

    I love that quilt. It's a perfect cat quilt. Thanks for sharing.

    Quilting has taught me to slow down and that is hard for me.And to measure twice and cut once.On the bright side you are adding to your scrap stash for a great string quilt!

    The printed panels came from my LQS but then I got more from:

    http://www.blockpartystudios.com/

    and they have a lot of other themes too. I had to get another cat one to make for a friend and the RV one for our RV.

    I don't FMQ yet either :-) I would SID around the blocks and the diamonds/squares I see within some of the blocks, and maybe do some cross-hatching or simple stitching on the diagonal in the checkered areas.

    You could also put a border around it then cut the border to make it all nice and square. K

    I got it squared up with adjusting a couple of seams and then starching. Going to get it sandwiched and basted today.

    Still looking for any quilting ideas!
