My latest little Critters.

[ATTACH=CONFIG]363729[/ATTACH]I bought this fabric a long time ago, and took pics of the quilt made with it at my LQS. I lost the pics so decided to do my own thing. I forgot I had set the cutest critters aside, so I made another quilt with them.

I think I lost the attic window effect I was going for.

Jingle 09-17-2012 06:07 PM

Cute critters, yes the attic window effect was lost.

CAS49OR 09-17-2012 06:32 PM

Jingle, I'm thinking if I had quilted the lower part of the same color I may have got the "shelf" effect.

I think it has the look of columns along a wall with the critters being pictures hung on the wall. Very nice.

CAS49OR 09-17-2012 06:43 PM

Thx Tess, I see that too. The critters are back in a shadow box, or deep in the shelves.

BETTY62 09-17-2012 06:46 PM

They are just too cute. I love them.

I was thinking the same thing. Looks good from here. :thumbup:

those little critters are the cutest things.

Tweety2911 09-18-2012 05:41 AM

So very cute!

Thanks ladies! I was proud of myself for learning how to do the "attic windows" from a youtube video. My corners actually met up. I didn't do it the way where you use half-square triangles in the corner. I didn't have enough fabric to fix anything (not that there are crooked blocks or anything, lol, just design choices to make it wonky) or for many options so I was just happy I finally used the fabric I bought last year. The LQS made blocks of the pictures outlined with solids with sashing between. The fabric was all from the same line. I don't remember the name of it.

And here I was taking a good look at your picture because I liked the effect you created and I wanted to use it! I love this quilt and the critters.

CAS49OR 09-18-2012 10:55 AM

Thanks Kathy! You saw it too?

joyce888 09-18-2012 11:02 AM

Cute cute cute!

quiltlady 09-18-2012 11:07 AM

I think the thinner blue frame is what lost the attic window effect but now it looks like very deep shelves with them sitting at the back of the shelf. I like it.

CAS49OR 09-18-2012 11:16 AM

The fabric below the "shelf" is all the same size. I'm thinking I should have quilted some thread in there to get the effect?

absolutely cute! Yes, the attic window was lost, but still a cool effect.

julybaby8 09-19-2012 04:38 AM

ctipton 09-19-2012 12:53 PM

Very cute though

gramquilter2 09-19-2012 03:23 PM

Cute fabric. Good job.

jojosnana 09-19-2012 04:17 PM

I think they are too cute.

You may have lost the effect you were looking for but it is so cute who cares? I love those whimsical animals. They are great. Great quilt

Adorable - thanks for sharing!!!

calicojoan 09-20-2012 03:05 AM

The attic windows effect might be gone, but I see typewriter keys. OR I guess I should say keyboard keys. In this generation, no one has ever heard of a typewriter!! :) The little critters are adorable, and the quilt is just too much fun!

QUILTNMO 09-20-2012 03:57 AM

Maybe it's not quite what you were going for but it's a darn cute quilt. I love the expressions on those critters. It will be a hit with whoever receives it.

Jammin' Jane 12-13-2012 11:17 AM

What a fun quilt! Looks like you had fun making it, too! :)
