Caroline, there is a free pattern online that I sort of used. I didn't like the way the upright cat was pieced so changed that. I also went a bit smaller to get the 6.5 size. I've actually never paper pieced anything, but I've done plenty that would probably be easier that way. I'm still very much a novice when it comes to quilts.
I can't get the link to work - but that my be because of the filters since I'm in the office. I downloaded it at home last week with no problem. If you can't get it, send my a PM, I'm pretty sure I saved it to my computer at home. It's a PDF file.
