Pattern for this quilt is called Attic Windows. The windows are 9 machine embroidered quilt blocks with flower baskets, all different. I wish I could take credit for the embroiderey work but I have to be honest and say that I purchased them at auction. The cat and surrounding flowers are fused appliques. The cat is leopard print flannel. Cat and flowers on the border are all raw edge applique. The vines are rickrack. Bordering fabric is soft pink with roses.

Oh I love it!! I like kitties and hand embroidery. That was the first needlework I learned at a young age of 9 or 10. That quilt can come live with me anytime.
