Molly have fun doing your quilt. I have these blocks there is 3 of them and they were made to do coloring. I got them to show a friend of mine how to color on fabric.

Not a quilt, but a friend of mine used this panel for a wall hanging that fit a narrow area in her hallway. She did 6 or 6 "cats" vertically and quilted, and on the alternate ones she attached another "cat" so it formed a pocket. She uses it for keys, mail, bills, etc. Sorry I'm not explaining it more clearly but hope you get the idea. It's really cute.

LOVE THIS FABRIC!! However....I have no ideas for you. Finding ideas is one of my worst traits. Fear overcomes me at thought of cutting it up.

Please....be sure to share when you have a finished product and your process.

Get some wacky fabrics for shashing and go dark for the borders.

Attic Windows....Great Idea. If you use the entire block, it will seem like you're looking out at all those wonderful kitties.

My next question...So many colors....What would YOU use for the windows?

Might have to look for fabric to try this.

Here again....I want to be you. It takes me forever to work out what to do. And then I still think "what if" when the quilt is complete. You guys are wonderful.
