Shannon's final two quilts


Here I am again sharing the last two of Shannon's six quilts. More scrappy cats and scrappy chickens.


Shannon really busted some scraps for this beauty! Measuring 50" x 50" Matilda's Own Polyester batting, Edge to edge quilting: "Splash" and fantastico thread - Playhouse, this quilt is now ready for Shannon to attach binding then let the kids loose to cuddle under!


Next, another great scrap buster using a variety of coordinating cat themed fabrics pulled together with some red and brown scraps .


Measuring 65" square again Matilda's Own Polyester batting, fantastico thread, colour - Walnut and edge to edge pattern "KittyKat". Here's the pattern on paper.......................


And now on the quilt.............................................


                A close up of some of the characters before quilting! Oh the life of a cat, so bliss!


While away from the machine and out walking Mt Parihaka my eye was drawn to Punga fronds, they seemed to be bursting forwards (or upwards!) where ever I looked.


                                                        And then standing under natures umbrella!

  1. Thought maybe the animal quilts would create a "farm" theme, but those hardly looks like farm cats--or chickens, for that matter. : )
    Love the shots from your walk--especially under the tree!

  2. Two wonderful quilts, love the Kitty Kat quilting pattern! Is a wonderful way to use up scraps. The NZ bush is so special love the Punga fronds and that huge one is amazing! We need to notice nature a little more!!

  7. That cat quilting design is hilarious! A perfect match and one I am sure you will use a lot of, with all those cat people out there... no naming names but you know who I mean.
