Pattern needed for cat quilt
 
I'm wanting to make a cat quilt, but can't locate a source for the pattern I want to use. It's the one where the cats are sitting side by side in a row. Mo Star has a shorter version but I'm wanting the taller one. Does anyone have this pattern or know where I can get one please?

Could this be the one you are looking for? Cat's Meow: Purr-fect Quilts for Cat... book by Janet Kime (thriftbooks.com)

Otherwise maybe some of these sites might have the one you need. cat quilt pattern - Bing

If you go to Jordan Fabric , they have a free pattern called Kaffe Kats.

Mkotch 05-25-2021 02:01 AM

I think the pattern you're looking for is "It's Raining Cats and Dogs" by Janet Kime. I've made that pattern a few times - love the two cats! Paper pieced.

Not sure it matches your description but I made Pins and Paws by Missouri Star. Quick and easy using a layer cake. Check out the video.

LGJARN52 05-25-2021 03:03 AM

Sorry ladies...none of these sites have the pattern I'm looking for. The quilt pattern I'm looking for is all over Pinterest, but can't get a source for it somehow. https://cdn.quiltingboard.com/images/smilies/wave.gif

Can you post a photo of the one you saw on Pinterest, that might help us find the correct one.

I have made one but not sure if it's what you are looking for. I entered the name Kitty Cat Block in Cat Fabric and the picture came up. Apparently it was in a McCall's magazine. I don't know if you can follow through to get to a pattern through that--if it's the one you are hoping to find. This was part of a swap that i got the pattern. Another name on the pages is The Dread Pirate Rodgers Quilting Page.

It might be "cats in the attic". Do a search for it. It was a free pattern from a designer (I may have the story wrong.) who died unexpectedly. It was on her website, but her heirs did not keep up the site. It's not an easy pattern. It has lots of tiny pieces.

Here's another pattern at Villa Rosa.

Cat Naps? Good luck - since her tragic death, many of her books and patterns have become unavailable.

A few years ago, somebody here posted a quilt of cats that was very much like the one @ Missouri Star (Pins and Paws), but there were cats going up, and cats going down, interlocked. It was so cute! Unfortunately, I can no longer find the picture or thread here.

Pam Bono's is not included here, but there are some darned cute ones. I did not check to make sure each of the links still works. http://quiltinspiration.blogspot.com...og-quilts.html

Quiltwoman44 05-25-2021 11:41 AM

there are some by Bono on Ebay.

LGJARN52 05-25-2021 12:24 PM

QuiltBaer,,,,this one is close...I kind of like it.

LGJARN52 05-25-2021 12:26 PM

I never knew there were so many cute kitty quilts out there! I may be making more than one.


Quiltwoman44 05-25-2021 12:34 PM

That is the one I was thinking of mainly when you said sitting next to each other. It's been around awhile now. Cute.

SusieQOH 05-25-2021 03:02 PM

I saw another really cute cat pattern called Just Kitten Around. I love cat patterns!

I swapped with the Dread Pirate, were you there too??!! If you look close you can see some of the same fabrics in her's as in mine here:

There are many ways to get the pattern if you can't draft it yourself, from buying just the magazine issue or issues on disk.

I think the one PeaceandJoy is thinking of is Kool Kats Kwilt by Patti Carey

bearisgray 05-26-2021 05:08 AM

Can you send a link to a picture of what you are looking for?

Thank you, Cattitude (love that name!). I did see that one, it's one of the ones in the link I shared. The one that was posted here ages ago was more like Pins and Paws, but the creator had figured out how to adjust the background and cats so that where there is usually background it was another cat. It was quite clever.

Our daughters and I are all cat lovers. I grew up on a farm and when a litter of kittens was born, when they were big enough, Dad put them in his denim coat, buttoned it up and brought them to show me. I don't know if he was trying to entice me to come to the barn to see them (I hated it, the cows scared me and there were too many spiders) or if he was just showing me the kittens, but it started a life long love of cats.

Amazon has it!

Heathermom2opmc 05-26-2021 04:03 PM

Did the original person find the quilt pattern they were looking for? I'm curious to know what it was/is.

Here is pic of a kitty quilt I made several years ago. I found the pattern in an old issue of McCalls Quilting October, 2000 called Kitty Cat Charms,but have been told that it is in a book by Robert Callaham called The Cat's Meow.

Here's the little quilt I made from "It's Raining Cats and Dogs"

LGJARN52 05-27-2021 03:39 AM

Pattern was found!! It IS actually the pattern that was in McCalls Quilting October called Kitty Kat Charms. But along the search, I found one by Villa Rosa Designs called Cat City that makes a 42" x 56" for a Project Linus quilt. This is basically the same pattern as in the McCalls issue just done up smaller. But the icing on the cake was an adorable kitten in a basket free pattern from Windham Fabrics (PDF) called "Baskets of Fun" 57" x 68". I can see myself making more than a few of any of these patterns for Project Linus. Now, anyone have a cute puppy pattern??

Thank you everyone....all of your suggestions were purrrrrfect!

bkay 05-27-2021 04:39 AM

What a great idea! That would be a great quilt for Project Linus. I've collected a bunch of animal "skin" prints to make a cat quilt, but didn't think of Project Linus. Thanks.

LindaSchipper ... Thanks for leading us all astray to more wannabe projects!!
Bet you could adapt these kitties into puppies, pretty easily.
Good Luck with all!

You're Most Welcome, SusieQOH!! .... I think you should treat yourself and make one of these quilts for yourself. Or keep it simple and make yourself a one kitty mug rug, just to try the pattern! :)

Omg, you remember???!!!! WOW!!!!!!!!!!! :)
Every single member of my family would love this quilt- and I have mostly males but we all love cats :)

My new grandson's quilt does have a cat on it. When I finish it I will post a pic.

Grandma’sgirl 05-28-2021 06:14 PM

We are also cat aficionados and I have loved seeing the different patterns. I was busy making other projects, it now I must add Baskets of fun onto the list. It is darling! Kitty Kat Charms is also a keeper! Thanks for the inspiration!

LGJARN52 05-29-2021 02:21 AM

Glad I could start the ball of yarn rolling on cat quilts....it's going to be a fun summer with all these patterns!
