Cat Face Quilt

Cat Face Quilt

Finished Quilt Size: 36″ by 40″

I’m finally finished with my Cat Face Quilt for my little cousin, Quinton!  I don’t know how it took me almost three weeks but it did!  Ideally, I would like to quilt every day for at least a few hours.  It was my goal, actually.  But reality took a big bite out of that plan.  My schedule is so jammed pack with all my son’s classes and home study, and on top of that, I have to feed and bathe him on a daily basis!  He’s taking up all of my quilting time!  So really, I get to quilt about a couple of hours every other day… or so.  I suppose that’s enough time as long as quilts get finished, eventually.  I suppose… Logi needs to remain my top priority ;-)

So the Cat Face Quilt is ready just in time for Quinton’s 2nd birthday party, which is this weekend.  Get a look at his cute little face here.The photo is almost a year old.  I hope I can get a nice updated photo of him at the party.

Here are more photos of the finished Cat Face Quilt. Poofs wanted to get in on the quilt photo shoot action.  I could never say no to him.  Plus, he makes a nice photo prop for my Cat Face Quilt.
Some scrappy binding made of the remaining cat face fabric pieces.

Here’s one shot of the pretty quilt backing.

I love these little cat faces.  I hope Quinton will too.

So up to this point, I’ve been doing a lot of straight-line quilting.  In my next quilt, I dare venture into the world of free-motion quilting.  I’ve ordered a darning foot for my little sewing machine and once it arrives, I’m going to start exploring this new world.  With focus and determination, I’m going to teach myself to free-hand my quilts and I’m going to like it!  Keep you posted on my progress!
