Catvent

Yeah, yeah, I drank the Catvent Kool-aid. It started with Ralphio, cat 5. I was just going to try one and see if I liked it. I made him before dawn and didn't realize he was supposed to be done in reds. As a result, I have a ton of orange cats laying around here. The blocks are quick and easy to make, so I can make extra.

It only took me five days to realize that Catvent was an ode to Advent. *cough* A cat a day until Christmas. I get it now!

Progress...I love that they are all named. There's Bernadette, Zeke, Sunny, Chowder, Lucy, Barley, and more! Poor Yanick, my Sew Day next door neighbor had to listen to me keep track of the names.

My blocks so far. I made two of the same cat. One in yellow, one in green. Oops. My Catvent may go longer than 25 days! I can throw the extras kitties on the back.

This is what the quilt looks like finished. Isn't it cute? I can't wait to make more blocks.

My first Christmas present. Thanks Kathryn!

  3. OMG! This is so adorable! Calling out names for each cat when done made Sew Day that much better. (I didn't know there would be a rainbow involved. I might drink this Kool Aide, too.)
