    I added borders to make the block larger, and of course being math-compromised () I ended up with it too big--it's about 14" square. I will deal with that later, can always trim it down.

    Without further ado, my kitty cat block.

    The background is a light pink print, which doesn't show up great in the picture.

    I like the design of having the heart in the center of the cat. Had to contemplate what I wanted to do with this block since my hubby and I will be celebrating our 40th anniversary this month. This is what I came up with and hubby likes it too!
    great block! love your stars!!!! and happy aniversary!

    Love seeing everyone's blocks. You are all making your own very special. Great talent!
    I ordered some batiks from Connecting Threads and waiting for them to arrive so I can work on mine.
