My little cat quilt is coming right along! This is a quilt that a client asked me to
make, based on the colors of her front room.
I had a lot of fun choosing fabrics with her, and imagining
what the cats would look like. We both
loved the way the Batik fabrics made such a difference in each cat.
As a matter of fact, some of the colors in the batiks
changed so much in just one piece of fabric, that I could get 2 different cats
out of it, and you couldn’t tell it was the same piece!
And all of my "Cats" up on the wall. They place together pretty nicely. My cats in real life, try to trip me on a regular basis - they make me look clumsy!
I had some Batik Strips left over,
and so.... what any good quilter does... ( Okay you can laugh now, I am not always this disciplined) I made them into a border!!
And now.... I will quilt it!!
So you will see it one more time before it goes to its own home!!

I love how you are finishing off the quilt top. It will be fun to see how you decide to quilt it!
Great idea for the leftover strips! It sure is a fun quilt.
Meow! That is lookin' good.

Pretty kitties!!! (Because it's a known fact that EVERYTHING is better in batik!)
I have never thought of doing a border where the colored fabric is only in two corners. I really like that effect!
You aren't disciplined??? 😉
It looks wonderful Alycia! I'm a cat lover too!
That is real purrrrty! (Lol). Yes, everything is purity in batiks! Nice job Alycia.
love your kitties
Very cute, and your scrappy border looks really fun!
What a fabulous quilt top. I really like how you finished it.
Oh so pretty and colorful. Those batiks made perfect little kitties.
