Invitation from Nancy!

 National Cat Day! 10-29-21  One day late!  I wanted to post this yesterday, Friday, but had a computer glitch. GAH!

Back in August, Nancy at Grace and Peace Quilting made a quilt for National Dog Day! Then she invited us to make a quilt for National Cat Day!  I had a thought, but didn’t know if I could get it accomplished! Here it is, almost done. I have some more quilting to do and the binding. Then it will be a  Christmas gift for DS‘s cat, Phoenix!

Of course, now I have to make a cat quilt for my DD. She has a nearly all white kitty, King!

Yes, the top kitties are upside down. Imagine this used on the back of a couch, visible from front and back. The cat blocks were from a tutorial from Sally at The Objects of Design (for the kitties)and a pattern (for the mama cat) sent to me from Cathy at Crazy By Design.   I've been admiring Cathy's Mama Cat and Litter of Kittens for awhile. 

This is the back. DS is a big Denver Bronco fan! And I happen to have a piece of Bronco fabric. Imagine that!

A closeup of the serpentine quilting around the cat blocks. I’ll do more quilting in each cat block and a 2 inch grid in the, text print fabric, main part of the quilt.  I like the way it is going! 

Go check out Nancy’s posts for Dog Day, here. And  Cat Day, here!   She did fabulous little quilts. Such awesome fabrics and quilting! 

Stay Busy and Stay Happy and Healthy!
