Ok, so I decided to make this one.
Just a change up for a bit.
It's on the Fatcat site, so if you are wanting it, that's where you can find it.
There's a few mistakes in it, but all in all, it's cute.
If I do it again, which I probably will, I'll make the block bigger.

That is so cute :!:

That is too cute! Love the little fish!!

Thanks!

I know with the Japanese Cat,,,the paw up means something. One side means luck or fortune, not sure what the other means.

very cute

I like it. Finally got on fat cat last night and saved lots of patterns I might want to try!!

Have you named the block Big Boy yet? The fact that the cat takes up the WHOLE block says it all....Nice work Terri, I really like that kind of block.

Goodness how cute! I want to do a quilt with her patterns but involved with something I HAVE to finish. Why did you say you would have made it bigger?

It says 8 1/2 inch block. That's why it's so small.
Next time the background block will be bigger.

Ooooh Terri I love him he's so cute!!!!! Nice work!

Cute cat! Is Big Boy jealous that you spent time with "another" cat??? I didn't know about that Japanese thing..I'll have to ask my neighbor about it.

Your kitty block is sew cute!!!! Might have to make one for myself :roll:

Sure looks like a friendly cat to me!
Great job Terri! :-)

Oh Goodness now you will have me wanting cats and chicks. I keep telling my daughters Lord I hope I dont die today I just have way to much sewing quilting and stitching I want to do. Sure hope there is a sewing palace in heaven with those streets of gold. Don't you? :wink: :wink:

Very cute! I love it!

that is so cute.... :D

That is so cute.

Oh, that is very cute, and such personality.

Looks like your cat is waving to Big Boy, taunting him with the fish!!! :roll: :roll: Good job on the block, love it :D :D :D

What a cute kitty.

Would it really be heaven if there isn't????

That is sew cute! More for the bucket list! :lol: :lol:

cute-cute-cute

I wondered how long it would take to get the the kitties quilts! Lol ... They are such good companions. :lol:

awwwww i like your kitty... GOOD JOB!

Cute kitty!

Just wants to make me smile from ear to ear......:-)

Sew cute, Terri!
I used the same name for a Kitty quilt I made last Nov for DD and her family in anticipation of the terrible winter they expected - and got - in NY. I'll finish quilting the last border when I get back to CT - leaving Mon - whoopee! I'll post when I finish - if I'm remembering right, 12 kitties and I plan to quilt mice in the blank border.

almost ... I am ALMOST tempted to do applique with all your Fatcat.com pictures, the kitty and the chickens.
But, mine would never be as expressive as yours.
I am so glad that y'all are doing all this beautiful work to inspire and entertain us.
Good job!

Really cute block!

very cute Terri I love it

I've seen these, I really should make my daughter some pillows. She has four in house kitties, and probably going to have six, in about a week.
She rescued a mama kitty with three babies, and i agreed to take the mama. She gave one kitty away, and cried, so she said she is going to keep the others. She would love this, it's so cute. :D

For those of us that are not that active on this site, what is the actual web address where you found this beautiful cat. What are the mistakes in the pattern? This cat would be perfect in a quilt for a cat lover friend of mine. Thank you for sharing, it very adorable.

Adorable, Terri

aileen, Terri is pulling our leg, she does beautiful stuff! :wink:
fatcatpatterns.com is where this cutie came from.
I think it is fat cat, or just look to the left, there is a list of different subjects, and click on horses....gotcha...cats, lol! :lol:

Too Cute! I read about this particular Japanese Cat with one paw up, seems there is a story behind why it is good luck......Lemme see if I can find it again.

Different story...

And yet another....

I read all those articles! Thanks for posting them. But I liked the first one the best. Guess I'm a sucker for a happy ending :roll:

Thanks to both of you for your information,sharing of the website and the story of the Japanese cat. I will remember to make the cat waving the hand, Uh.... paw both left and right and then include the story with the quilt, it will add a nice little touch. I will post a picture of the finished quilt before I give it to her, which will be awhile as I babysit my beautiful baby grandchildren while my daughters go to college.

Ahhh Terri!! Toooooo cute!!!

Very cute.
