Adorable .. I think I may have to put those on the bucket list to get done for 2015. Adorable for sure, maybe even a few lap quilts ....

Can't help with any ideas for quilting, I just wanted to pop in to tell you that the quilt is adorable.

LOVE this quilt and all the ideas for quilting. I've been on the lookout for a quilt pattern for my 13mo granddaughter, and found some but I think this is IT! I read the directions but she doesn't say what size the background sq is or the finished block and I'm not a math techie (yikes and I quilt?) ... what size is the background sq? I've been even thinking of using my scraps for around the sqs so they wouldn't need to be 2.5insqs ... just thinking...

I suppose you could use your own measurements---my black blocks are 10.5" to begin, but the kitties would look as good on 12" blocks. This is where you use your math--determine how large you want the quilt to be and make up the difference with sashings and borders. It is not really rocket science.

Thanks Mermaid! Appreciate your reply

Cute quilt....

Very cute! I agree with outlining the cats and then maybe straight line on either side of the seams between the blocks?

I think I would outline all of the cats and then echo that in the black areas. Maybe do a doodle FMQ in the sashing. It would be easy and not take away from your cute little kitties

Mermaid, I would echo around the cats in black thread - it will blend in with quilt and add more texture to the area - that way you are highlighting your quilt and your kitties more than the quilting itself. In the borders - any kind of quilting filler would work - maybe a swirl or circles. I hope you show us your quilting.

Oh my that us the cutest ever quilt. I think just some simple SID would
Work just fine. Nothing to distract from those kitties. . I agree a echo
With black thread would work IMHO
