    Here is my version of the "Let Sleeping Cats Lie" quilt by Helene Knott. I had such fun doing this. I did it in all different colors because I wanted it to reflect the colorful border fabric. I'm going to put a nice bright grass green for the back and bind it in the same color. Also, I'm going to add jet black hot fix crystals for the eyes and nose on the mice.

    The border fabric is called "Cat's Secret Garden" by Susan Brack for P&B Textiles. I just did a search online for "Cat's Secret Garden fabric" and found several sources. There's also a free pdf quilt pattern using the fabric in a border. Cute!
