red cat quilt
 

I just finished this cat quilt. One of my quilter friends was downsizing her stash and gave me a panel and lots of related fat quarters. She told me she knew I would put the fabric to good use, as we are both cat lovers. It took me forever to come up with an idea. Finally I asked my expert quilter sister for ideas. I liked what she suggested and went to work. When I had the top finished, I couldn't figure out how to quilt it, as I normally SITD, and nothing I tried looked good. I tore out my quilting twice. My sister again came to the rescue and quilted it for me on her long arm.

I think it turned out quite cute, despite about a million mistakes I made while making it.

Thanks for looking.

I too am a cat lover and your quilt is beautiful! What a great way to use a panel! The red makes the cat blocks pop!

Oh Dina I love it-great job!

It did turn out cute. Any cat lover will really enjoy that one.

What a cuddly thing :)

You captured the life of these cats perfectly. The quilt is playful and sweet. Thanks for sharing.

Your cat quilt turned out lovely.

Thanks for the kind words.

very nice finish. Those cats put a smile on any face.

Very pretty .

Dina, your friend was so right. You put her fabric to great use. It so cute. I love the little boxe. It reminds of film.

This is a nice work of art. Very good looking.

Cute quilt. I have a few of those fabrics, they keep going to the "later" pile. Maybe I can use some of your great ideas.

Me-ow!! I like that.

Love it! The way you blocked off the cats is so like well, cats.

Love your quilt and absolutely adore my cat!

Oh Dina, that's adorable!!!!

Thanks for the sweet compliments. I will put a picture in the Show and Tell part of our monthly newsletter and hope that my friend likes it as well as you all have. :) Our guild is having meetings, but I am not comfortable going yet....
