Quilter's Show & Tell - Quilts with Pets

This is turning out to be the week of the cat.
 
For all those Cat lovers out there...my entry for this week's theme 'Quilts wit Pets' is this little wall hanging that I made out of a Panel that my daughter urged me to buy some time ago. I finally cut it up last year and used it as a FMQ practice piece to produce this little wall hanging:
 
 
 
The quilt measures 18in x 22 1/2in and now adorns my sewing room. For more detail on the FMQ you can find some close ups HERE
 
Head over to the Quilting Gallery for this week's entries. Voting will be open from Friday to Monday morning.

Quilter's Show and Tell


This is my entry to this week's Quilter's Show and Tell over at the Quilting Gallery. The theme for this week is Quilts for the Little Ones.

As you may know I finished this quilt earlier in the year. This is the second time that I have done this quilt. It is the perfect quilt to whip up in a hurry as it comes together very quickly.


 
What I like about this quilt design is that the design is particularly useful in showcasing the feature fabric, in this case,  zebras that are hopping all over the place. There are currently so many bright and colourful conversational type fabrics around and I often look at them and think that they are far too pretty to cut up into really small pieces.
 
 
The quilt measures 36.5 x 48.5 inches and is quilted with an overall loop design.
Watch this space as I am intending to put the pattern up on the blog in the near future (just have to figure out how to upload a PDF).
 
Anyway, voting for the quilts starts on Friday and goes through to Monday morning. There will also be a give-away open to everyone visiting the site during the weekend voting. So, head over to the Quilting Gallery to have a look at all those wonderful quilts (and hopefully give me one of your votes).
