Cat-Tastrophy and Winnie the Pooh



This is the quilt that was in the bottom of the basket for my niece. A big pain the the butt. The pattern is found in the book called "Season Sampler" by Cabbage Rose and the pattern is called Razzle Dazzle. I called it Cat-Tastrophy becasue I fussy- cutted in each of the diamonds there is a cat. The finished quilt is about 57" square. This quilt was a strech for my sister because she is not a fan of black and brights but that is what babies see first. My niece and siter did grow to love the quilt but it did spend some time in the bottom of her closet at first. Now it goes every where she goes on vacations and that is what she sleeps on in the hotels.

This is the next quilt that I gave A. Something that was more in my sister's color scheme. But even with being a theme and color scheme that my sister enjoyed it spent some time in the bottom of the closet. Why who knows. But it did get the "Dellos stamp of approval".

This is a very simple "Trip Around The World" pattern. There is two prints and two solids with 3 inch blocks. I did X quilting in each square and then bound it in the pink. The backing was the larger print and the fabrics where purchased at J's fabric store.

A loves both quilts and they get lots of use out of them. The Bunny quilt will go on her "Big Girl Bed" and I will post a picture of the finished product.

at least the quilt is finished. my sister had one on a quilt frame in the great room for like 12 years. recently she went to take it off and found some holes the cats had made in it. very strange as I did not know cats knew anything about quilting. jh

I still love Cat-Tastrophy! Again, A is one lucky little girl :0).
