Thanks feline fanatic! I did use a stencil to mark the quilting patterns. I use a frixion pen to mark my quilting lines. I like it because the lines disappear w/ heat and i have always been successful in it washing out.

Thanks - She is part Maine Coon. She was a neighborhood stray that popped up on my back porch and stayed. She has a lot of personality.

Thanks for the comments. I do agree - there is something special/different about a hand quilted quilt.
I do know that my sister will appreciate this. Now my brother, my mom, and my sister all have quilts that I have made. The nephews wouldn't appreciate something now, so they'll have to wait their turn.
The background fabric was left over from another quilt and i had made about 5 yrs ago. It was actually a pistol to get things to blend w/ it and it took awhile. Part of me is sorry to be out of the fabric, but the goal was to use up stuff in my stash - and it did do that.

Thanks! That's exactly what I love about that fabric - its elegance. It is made by South Seas Imports (which doesn't make anything anymore.) Wilmington Prints bought the designs I think and I've come across them, but it's not the same quality fabric or feel.
