From Power Cutting, Too by Debbie Caffrey
The pattern is Robo-Cats, started in a Power Cutting class in 2005.
It hasn't been trimmed yet, so I just draped it over the loveseat to show it off.
It's probably one of the first really scrappy quilts I ever made.
I love the split nine-patch blocks.
I also love the mix of animals in the border.
Can you see the lime green dragonflies in the panto quilting?
I thought this would be a charity quilt, but I'm lovin' it an awful lot ...
Whooping it up with Confessions of a Fabric Addict.
Nice!! I've always loved the Split 9-Patch, too. Gotta LOVE scrappy!!!
ReplyDeleteGreat quilt! It reminds me of looking through a window at a flower garden and the animals. So fun and happy!
ReplyDeleteHow cheerful! I like the double sashing. (I have been looking at Judy Hooworth's Razzle-Dazzle Quilts book -- she advocates double sashing.)
ReplyDeleteI can see why you're lovin' it a lot - so cute!
ReplyDeleteIt looks great! I love scrappy quilts, and this one is a winner. Sharon B in Franklin
ReplyDeleteIf only your border fabric had monkeys, it would be perfect... 8)
ReplyDeleteThat is a happy quilt, sometimes we just have to keep a quilt that brings us joy.
ReplyDeleteOh that's a lovely quilt - the split nine patch works so well. Beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI like those split nine patch blocks, too! I love the contrast in yours between the brights and the low volumes. The border fabric is so much fun! Great quilt, Libby!
ReplyDeleteI have made a couple of quilts from Debby Caffrey books. This one is super cute. Love the border fabric, too.
