    Here is my latest cat quilt. This was my first attempt at sewing the binding by machine. It worked out so well, and I'm so happy about that. It's also my first try at fmq--actually, my second try. I ripped out the first try. I rate it somewhere between "terrible" and "not very good," but I guess we all have to start somewhere. The business of the fabrics made it very forgiving. I hope you like my quilt.

    Pieced back of quit--the label is upside down because this is a wall hanging. When someone raises the corner to see the label, it will be right side up for the reader

    Ooooh cute! I only have one suggestion: put your name on the label too! That way when you're gone, a long time from now, somebody knows the maker.

    I do have my name on the label. I just took it out because I don't like posting my full name on the internet. I appreciate your comments

    That is great. I have fallen in love with black and white. The label is so cute.
