    I love the cat fabric, and that's a very cool pattern.

    One year I asked for fat quarters and I got two really cool coordinated bundles, but what happened was that they intimidated me - I didn't want to cut into them and ruin them. So they've been sitting there three or four years now, waiting, and I just now came up with the perfect plan for them.

    And some people get me gift certificates to fabric stores just because they know me well enough to know that would be appreciated.

    Pretty quilt, you did a great job with the pattern & love that fabric. You probably figured out I'm a cat lover too.

    Love the bright cats, nice quilt! I used some of this fabric for a couple of fun totes, and sold them very quickly too.

    Thanks for the nice compliments. I enjoyed making the quilt.

    I had to look up the pattern, as I buried the book a bit. It is from a book called Mystery Quilts by Rita Fishel. The pattern is called What Knots? It says "made by the staff at Creations Sew Clever, Chillicothe, Ohio. I borrowed this book, so I don't know much more about it. On the back it says American Quilter's Society.

    I used that same cat fabric for a rag quilt for my GD for her birthday. I combined it with blocks of lime green and purple flannel. It turned out real cute and also made a pillowcase.

    I think your quilt is adorable and your idea of 3 yds of fabric is BRILLIANT! I will give that suggestion to anyone that asks me from now on. Much more fun than a gift card too!
