"BUDS"

Closer up

Binding & backing

Pattern Info

Pattern info for this project can be found here:

Instructions

I really don't recall & gave the pattern away.

Difficulty:

Category: Quilting

Type of item: Functional

For: Women

Style: Classic, Cute, Whimsical, Casual, Traditional, Romantic

Materials

Cotton fabrics, cotton thread & floss. Minky for backing

What was your inspiration?

My dear friend who has been going through some great health issues
& surgeries. She loves kitties. So this will be a wonderful lap quilt for her &
her two kitties to watch TV or just nap under.
I have really wanted to do this pattern for some time.

What are you most proud of?

How well that it turned out, I really like it a lot.
I also like the different black fabrics that I chose for the Kitties.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

This is a very easy one to make. I enjoyed the applique work on this quilt.
But, you can also use fusible. I would recommend "Steam a Seam Light 2"
or "Misty Fuse" if you will be doing hand stitching.
Most of all ... ENJOY.

This is gorgeous and will make your friend feel so much better - she'll feel very loved to have had you make this especially for her, and that's worth so much to someone who is in poor health. Midnight cats! Lovely!

I love your choice of colors and the Minky on the back isn't something I would have thought about but is a nice idea. Makes it soft and cozy. Your friend will love it.

Simply beautiful! The colors are so clean and bright, the contrasts perfect. I love the nighttime feel of it all and the playfulness of the kittens. Your friend will be so pleased. It should give her great joy to know that you care enough to put this much effort into giving her something so lovely and warm to help her through her difficult moments. You have a beautiful heart.

She will love these kitties too. I love the black in this piece, cats are always more active at night.

Thank you 4Bird, that is so very true. I tell our kitties "time to go to bed". Then they follow me into Jim's office & get in their beds. I close the door & go to bed. But, they have a kittie door, so they do what ever they want. Thanks again for your nice comment. :-)
