Wow! Thanks everybody! I have tears in my eyes from all the "kindness of strangers". The center blocks are embroidered and, were I to do this again, I'd use a darker sashing around them. I am so glad I found this place!

I am just starting also, and know you put ALOT of work into this!!! Kuddos on all your great work!!
If there is one thing, I am thinking that there is alot of block styles of kitties in this...maybe if you would have limited it to just a few, like using the Siamese, (one of my favorite blocks!) and the leopard and couple other -
My eyes didn't know where to look! These old eyes need to have a pattern to follow in a quilt.... Back and forth, diagonal tip to tip, etc... Does that make any sense? Do I need to just shut up now??? :lol:
Once again, great job!!!

I've looked at your wonderful quilt for quite a while, and the only thing I can see that's wrong with it, is that it's at the wrong address... it should be at mine! :lol:
I think it's so cute and so many kitties all over. For your 3rd quilt I'd say you've got such talant. Well done.
