Did you know I love cat fabric? hahaha! When I see a new cat fabric I MUST have it! So of course when Riley Blake Designs released Perfect Day I knew it was for me!!!
I love the color palate of this line – soft aqua, pink and greens with gray. You could totally make this a little boy quilt and omit the pink or make it a little girl quilt and keep the pink! Or you could just make something for yourself like I did!!!
I thought it would be fun to make something from my book Playful Precut Quilts and use the mix and match suggestion! So I did!
I choose these 3 blocks:
Colonial Flowers
Garden Cat
Sunday Drive
I wanted blocks that would require no sashing. The cats have a border built into the block which is great to add some space to the quilt.
Here is the design I came up with! I added a small inner border and then a checkerboard border made with 2 .5″ squares that finish 2″.
Isn’t it funny how changing fabric can totally change the look of a block or quilt! I loved using a dark background on this quilt. The colors were so soft that I didn’t want them lost in a white background. I think it works!!
Hello. Am woman posted abpicture of one of your quilt patterns it had a link. I cannot find the pattern? It was a lot of beautiful butterflies and flowers cascaded in the bottom corner. Just so pretty? How can I get that pattern or kit?
Also I am a slow beginner. I have a Bernina 790 Plus and love it. My oroblem is cutting pieces out. It takes me forever!!! Any suggestions. You can call or test or send an email 304-851-9997 they call me Andie but, my name is Andrea Saffell
