Cat Quilt



My third quilt progressed a bit. I saw the design in a magazine, but it must not have had any instructions. The faces are buttons and ric-rac. I was still unsure how to handle binding, but this one features a bias tape binding instead of just a blanket stitch. When I bought the fabric, the lady cutting it asked me what I was making. When I said a quilt, she asked, "Is it just squares sewn together?" Granted, this is not a terribly complex design, but I was still offended. I was 15, not 5. It may not be fabulous, but I was fairly impressed with myself considering my mom doesn't sew and I was figuring this all out on my own as I went.

Finished size: 28"x40"
