Yes, you must post options for the round. I like options. Your ideas could lead to others own ideas but without your options I might not get very far. You need to come up with ideas for future rounds, even if some don't use them, some of us need them. Thanks for doing this.

Elisabrat: I can not post picture the same way I once could. Was very frustrated at that, but figured out that if I go to "Go Advanced" at the bottom of this quick reply section, before I enter any comment in this section, I can then go down to "manage attachments" select picture I want to input, upload (another small window will come up for this part) wait till finished uploading, then write in the comment section & post. If you haven't tried that, give it a try. Gotta be way faster & easier then what you are doing.

I know that some are working on another round already, but stick to your schedule rounds, do not deviate. I know I might need to add a break between my last round and the next one so that they do not clash, but I'm waiting to see what you come up with.

Love it. The panel is great and the kitty eyes surrounding are fabulous. I need some of that outer fabric. Any idea what it is?

I am waiting patiently for the next set of choices. Once a month works for me as my top priority every month is a huge cross stitch project. When I finish a page I move on to other crafts.

Okay, this is a new one for me "Albums?" How do I find them?

Never mind-I found it.

Have a couple of rounds picked out, just need to sew a practice block to make sure size is right and then try to write the directions out for you. This time the rounds will be 6 1/2" unfinished. Need to sew a couple of blocks today for a swap and lots of D4P blocks. Love seeing your updates on the borders. pbadder looks like you'll have lots of color options for your kitty quilt, the eyes are so cute.

PB, love your fabric. Do you know what it is? I too want to make a cat quilt someday. I can't decide whether to make one that features the fabric, like your center, or one that has blocks with cats. Maybe two.

Brat and jaba, I think the fun of this is having your options and seeing how everyone's comes out different. I have learned a lot in just the first round. The way you have it planned is just right. Thanks for hosting and for the work it takes. Looking forward to Feb 1.

I do have a problem to deal with. After the first round, mine is 21". How did I get so far off? Should it be 18.5 at this point or 24.5? I can do another border to make it bigger.

Brat: I love this quilt along just the way Jabba and you set it up. I realize that leading quilters can be like herding cats, but I really do appreciate the time you both spend putting this together. One of the really nice things about joining a group like this is I try things I would never try on my own. I am finishing a quilt using the medallion for the back. Love the way its going.

works4me here is what it says on the white border of that material Pattern #6823 Quilting 2013 www.blankquilting.com you can try this and see if you find it. I bought mine at one of the local quilt shops that I frequent. let me know if this helps you. I went in looking for black material with beige paws to match what's on the panel, and they did not have to match saw this and fell in love with it.

whitepine I purchased the cats panel from www.fabric.com and the eyes material I bought at a local quilt shop I frequent if you look at my post number 589 I posted what the white strip had written on it for kitty eyes material if you are also interested in that one. The panel of cats had more than the four I used I just might use one or two other of those left over in a future border on this.
