Hi everyone, thanks for the kind comments on my quilt. The pattern book is one published by Leisure Arts called Calendar Cards written by Barbie Jo Paquin. I found this book on Amazon.com after searching the internet. I think I remember reading that Ms. Paquin has a website something to do with "Cleo and Me". Cleo was the name of her cat and she may have done a series of designs inspired by this cat. The pattern book directed the cat designs to be fused to a white background fabric and then hand outlined stitched to a slightly larger background. I was afraid that that type of construction would not allow for a very sturdy quilt so I made changes in the assembly by sashing all the blocks. Makes a much sturdied quilt. Hope this helps for those looking for the pattern.
