Having a pils of scraps leftover for years from Christmas sewing, I decided to make cat quilts - one for ours and one for Phoebe, my "grandkitty." This actually used all my scraps! So glad! The above picture is Phoebe on her new quilt. It is a strip QAYG, assembling backing and batting and then sewing strips cross the top, then bind - very fast way to make smaller items and looks quite good! :) Below is a picture of it before gifting. For the QAYG I used a fat quarter as the backing and that made the trimming extra easy! Size was same when done as a fat quarter.
The one I made our kitties is not as pretty! But it used quite a few scraps! It is larger than Phoebe's quilt by several inches each way. It was nice that I used all the rest of the Snoopy fabric for binding!! On the one for our cats I used several strip scraps to bind.
Phoebe looks quite at home. Does she realize how lucky she is as it's not every kitty that gets a hand made quilt.
