    Why would someone create this? Why would someone buy it? "Boy, I sure hope the quilt store has some dead cat fabric today." No, I didn't buy this on purpose, but it came in a lot of quilting fabric I bought. My husband agrees it's the oddest fabric! I will have to keep it and take it out to show people once in a while. Sort of like a Ripley's Believe it or Not. It's an artist line produced by Michael Miller. Yuck. Trust me, the cats look sadder in person.

    I think they were hoping they looked like Cat Angels but they missed their mark. Pretty sad looking. This is one cat fabric I WON'T be buying!

    Really terrible artwork. I can't believe this ever made it to the printing stage.

    Pathetic. Must be the buyer was on something the day MM accepted this in his line.

    The only one I would even think about with dead cats is where they are romping over the Rainbow Bridge...and even then the memory of my own lost fur kids would kick in and I wouldn't be able to enjoy it.

    Frankly, this fabric sucks!! And we're expected to gasp with pleasure and hand dollars to the LQS for them!!

    This is soooo bad on soooo many levels. I'm a textile designer that work for Timeless Treasures, Northcott, P&B, just to mention a few, and never would I have allowed something like this to get past my office.I see things like this and I wonder why I'm still out of work.
