I fell in love with this fabric. For anyone with cats (quite a few here) you will love it. It is Robert Kaufman's Whiskers & Tails. I also got 30% off. Hope you enjoy this.

How cute is that? I've stayed away from JoAnn's for a few weeks - too many projects!

roseOfsharon 03-02-2011 12:35 PM

:) I have some of that same fabric I bought last year ! It's very nice fabric too!

I think I need to go to JoAnn's after work. Scrumptous fabric. I love cats.

tedytrser 03-02-2011 12:38 PM

Oh now that is cute!

katiescraftshop 03-02-2011 01:05 PM

Love it! Might have to hit JoAnn's myself.

My Mom actually made herself a work smock out of that fabric! Unfortunately, she used the wrong-sized pattern and it didn't fit. She was able to give it to a coworker, though, and it looks lovely on an animal shelter employee!

Ha! Ha! Cute fabric!

Prissnboot 03-02-2011 01:15 PM

It's too cute, but how would you use it in a quilt? That's the only problem I have with larger prints like this - I love them, but how can I use them? Applique? I hate doing it tho.

Susanna10 03-02-2011 02:09 PM

Thank you. I am going to JoAnns. That is adorable.

champagnebubbles 03-02-2011 02:38 PM

brenda21 03-02-2011 04:14 PM

Not a "cat person" but it is very cute!

carolaug 03-02-2011 04:36 PM

I have that one too...I made pillow cases out of them...I use this fabric for the cuff. I wish I had bought more to make curtains.

dixiebelle162002 03-02-2011 04:37 PM

adorable

Lucymae 03-02-2011 04:37 PM

Wow I love it :D

NanaCsews2 03-02-2011 04:41 PM

Have a SIL who loves cats! I will have to track this down-Thanks for sharing!

CloverPatch 03-02-2011 04:42 PM

I stumbled onto his Wiskers and tails line, and its like finding a needle in a haystack! Very hard to track down some of these fabrics. Kudos to you for finding it!

this is my problem! bought this fabric a couple of years ago and it's been sitting in a drawer ever since. I take it out every once in a while to try and figure out a pattern/block for it but so far ... nothing. I love cats and this is why I bought the fabric. any ideas would be appreciated.

cheryl rearick 03-02-2011 11:23 PM

really cute fabric, what are you going to make with it? something for your cats lol.... :)

I think pillow cases along with edging top of a sheet with material would be a cute combination??? Just an idea. really cute material... OR leave it as is, add batting (thin) backing and make a little throw to place over a chair, with a bright pillow. ? Have fun.... it is a fun piece.

Adorable fabric!

NUTMEG10 03-03-2011 04:30 AM

I plan to make pillow case for my sister that breeds Maine Coon Cats. and will make a sewing maching cover for myself. Curtains for a sewing room would be great. Doris

It is adorable! As I write a black kitty is curious & I can't keep him off the keyboard. He is always at my hands because, U know, they gives me rubs. I have 5, need to narrow the #, but hard decision.

:thumbup: :thumbup:

Chickerson 03-03-2011 04:41 AM

Oh I do love it! I'm going to have to head out today - ut oh more fabric to hide from the hubby LOL

ljptexas 03-03-2011 04:42 AM

FYI... for cat lovers. I had the cutest cat border in a former sewing room!! Ordered it online. It had a b/w cat laying on a quilt on an old sewing machine.

:thumbup: :thumbup:

jad1044 03-03-2011 05:20 AM

Adorable to say the least - reminds me of my 2 cats here - always into something.

dlbrandt 03-03-2011 05:21 AM

wow!! Must get some for myself!!! Don't know what I'll make!!!

Monstookie 03-03-2011 05:22 AM

Laugh....I bought a yard of this fabric also...at the time...no idea what for....(shocker).

But I think I am going to make a cover for my sewing machine with it.

Very cute fabric

Auntie Di 03-03-2011 06:11 AM

I love this! It made me laugh....I'd have to have it as a wall hanging so I could see it everyday and smile!

Love it . good find.

BZEQUILTER 03-03-2011 06:39 AM

That is so cute!! I wonder how it would look for a center panel of a quilt!! I might have to find out!!

Caroline S 03-03-2011 07:48 AM

Have you thought about what you are going to do with it? I am sitting here looking at it and my mind is trying to create a kitty quilt. Looks as if I will have to add some to my stash.

LindaKayCat 03-03-2011 08:12 AM

Love it - must have it.

GGinMcKinney 03-03-2011 08:18 AM

I bought some of that this summer. I have a pattern for a wall hanging for the sewing room. Not all the fabrics were available so I am using this to sub for another fabric they used. I love this.
