I saw a quilt like this made up at the quilt store. Wasn't planning to buy anything but sale fabrics that day, but ... kept going back to it. A saleslady whom I work with a lot said, "Get it - you know you love it." I told her I didn't have anyone in mind to give it to and she told me that this one should be for me. What an idea!

Pattern: Cheaper By the Dozen (12 fat quarters)
Fabric: kit put together by LQS

Quilt inspector Cocoa blends right in

flash makes it look black/white, but it's a creamy cream.

Oh how quick to make BTW it looks cream on my laptop...nice cat also...I'm a cat person...

I'm not really a cat person, but my husband is. After our last one died at the ripe old age of 16 we went almost a year without one. Then the mice began to arrive. We live next to a large field and whenever they work in it - we get mice. So ... this little one joined us in March and --- no more mice. Not a cat person, but sure not a mouse person!

We have a black entertainment center and you can see the black rug in the picture. I really thought this was MY quilt, but ... hmmm... I think it blends in too much. This will probably make its way to someone else's house and I'll get something with more color to it. Fun to make though and someone else will love it so ... win/win.

That's lovely...and just the inspector's colour :)

Nice quilt! At first I thought the cat was an applique- tired eyes.

It is stunning with the black and creams. About time you do a quilt for yourself

Beautiful! I love the combo of cream and black, very classic.

Lovely quilt, it's great that the inspector coordinates with the quilt!

jrhboxers 07-09-2011 06:17 AM

OBVIOUSLY, you made the quilt for Cocoa. Can't you see how well it 'looks' on her? How can you give it away?

Beautiful. Will have to look for that pattern. Great work.
