This is my first time posting, so I'm a little nervous! I want to make a "cat" quilt for my granddaughter. I have lots of cat fabric but don't know what pattern to use to really set off the fabric. Any suggestions would be very helpful.

To show off lots of fabric, maybe a 4 or 9 patch or pinwheels. Those seem to be popular in the Quilts for Kids book.

You can do a simple 6 or 5 inch square quilt with paw print border. That would be quick and easy. Or are you looking for a harder pattern?

If you have one fabric you want to use as a focus, you might try a Warm Wishes pattern.

This is a great thread and perhaps others can post pics of their 'kitty cat' quilts. I would love to see plus would help give pointers to Terry. :-)
Feline fanatic...yours are wonderful! |
Aw, AWESOME kitty quilts!
|
If you have or can go buy a childs coloring book with simple animal pictures to color they make adorable applique patterns, then you can add alternate pieced blocks or plain blocks. Lots of free patterns on the internet.

I love them all!!!
