Krazy Katz Quilt

Posted by Lorna McMahon on Aug 06, 2013

My daughter, Erin, loves cats. Especially her cat, Fluffy. And she loves to read. She especially loves to read about cats. Her love is what inspired me to make my first quilt - the Krazy Katz quilt.

I designed the quilt to have a bookshelf surrounded by cats - featuring Erin's real life cat - Fluffy. He is the orange and white one. Erin saw my sketch and drew a little mouse on the shelf next to the sleepy kitty.

The Krazy Katz pattern instructions are for a finished quilt measuring 74.5" x 85". This allows for approximately 10" of drop on both sides and the bottom of a standard double bed. Any size quilt can be made by adjusting the width of the borders, the width or height of the bookshelf, etc.

Materials: Fabric, batting, thread, fusible fleece, paper backed fusible web, small amount of yarn, and two buttons.
