I'm not a cat lover, but I do love cat fabrics. Wonderful work.

love them both , but i adore the centre block of the blue one. my cat died in april and i still miss her . ........ but now we have a retired racing grey hound . he`s a big old softie but a little large to have sit on your knee for a cuddle, especially as i am all of 5ft tall or should that be short !!!!!

The top one has a floating, transparent sort of feel to it, as if one is looking through lattice. Just with a change of colour, the others look quite solid - at least to me. It gives me insight as to what I should do with some baby animal material I have. Many thanks for showing them.

I really like all the colors you chose to go with your focus fabric, nice work! These are very pretty quilts. :thumbup:

I have the cat fabric you show in the first quilt I fussy cut the cats to put in the center of Hope Stars. I love your quilt.

She was the sweetest cat, and never scratched or bit the kids, even when they were dressing her in doll clothes and pushing her in the dolly stroller. When she had enough, she just jumped away and went under the bed.
Thank you for fond memories from your adorable cat quilts. I love both of them, but of course, especially the cat in the garden one.
Thanks so much for sharing them. Hugs and smiles,

You are quite welcome! {{{HUGS}}}

Where did you get your Laura Birch fabric? Those wild and wacky cats remind me of the cats in Laurel Burch fabrics, but are very different. I love how the bright colors 'pop' off the dark background.

I bought 2 yards of the material a while back (year or two ago??) at Fabric Depot in Portland OR. Just had to have it...and finally knew what to do with it this year!

How pretty!
One time, I had an elderly lady at a local nursing home who would have LOVED having a kitty quilt <wave>

I love your floral cat material the best but love the others as well. I am still collecting my cat fabric until I can do a Queen for our bed. You did great and Congratulations on becoming a GRANDMOTHER.

I'm not a cat lover but my 15 year old granddaughter would love these. They are cute and I love the colors you chose.
