Awesome fabric...Cat in the Hat was one of both my kids and grandkids favorite characters/books.
|
Looks perfect! :thumbup:

Congratulations on new GC - will be a perfect backing!
|
Better than just plain white
|
love cat in the hat...
|
Don't you love it when you find the perfect fabric for a project? Love your Dr. Suess fabric!
|
I, too, recently found this Cat in the Hat panel. Haven't decided what to do with it yet. I have nieces and nephews adding to the family on a regular basis, so it will become a baby quilt at some point.

Any reason to stop at a fabric store works for me lolol ! what a great idea for the back of a quilt thanks for sharing :o)
|

Yup I did buy the 2 yards white fabric for my butterfly quilt. I am thinking I should take a trip back for more of the Cat in the hat fabric...love it. The quilt will be for my son and his baby. My son is the one who asked for a cat in the hat for his future baby so that he could hang out on the couch with the baby with the quilt...he does have two other quilts that I have made that he uses. He has been asking for a Dr. Suess quilt even before he was expecting...LOL. I emailed him the fabric that I just found and he loves it and now wants a pillow case. Love how he is still a big kid at heart at 26.

Hope to get this started in a few weeks...need to finish the train quilt first...hoping to complete that by next Sunday. At least the top.
|
Super find... that fabric will be perfect and congrats on the upcoming birth of your grand child!
|
Terrific fabric, great job and thank you for sharing.
Have a Blessed day Ellen |
I did not know that Ben Franklin's was still in business. they have all closed around my area. I like your Cat In The Hat fabric.

Great fine.
I need to ask you..Is DH related to mine. I often get him to a quilt shop and he sits in the car or on a chair near the exit. Too funny. |
Ben Franklin is a great place to get quilt quality fabric!! I love it...though its a little more than an hour away. The prices are GREAT! They also have a website. I buy my locker hooking supplies from them also. They charge 3.99 regular price where as Joanns charges 9.99 for the same item.
|
Love it!!! Our Ben Franklin has tons of wildlife prints. I don't get there very often.
|
I just love the cat in the hat, he's my fav. Cartoon characfer.
|
Congrats on your first grandbaby!
I'm sure your husband was smiling when he saw what you found! :) |

Oh, that is some beautiful fabric of the cat in the hat. Is the information about the fabric in the salvage so I can order some. Don't have a Ben Franklin here.
