Default China's quilt

China was my 21 year old cat that had to be put down 3 weeks ago. He was helping me when I started this quilt so he needed to be included in the top. I miss him so much.
The border is all just pinned right now because I will applique them before attaching to the quilt. Very rough looking top but just wanted to post a picture. The string will look like chenille once the quilt is washed.
Thanks for looking.

Thanks everyone. China was my lifeline. Really had a rough few weeks. I just feel alone and kind of adrift now but I am hoping that will all get better. Loved making his quilt and finding all that cat hair on the fabric!! Now I will work on getting those borders on. Would like to quilt it myself so any suggestions are welcome. I can do this...........
