You Get. . .

  • A digital pattern delivered by email. (If you're not sure what a PDF pattern is, you'll find more info here.)
  • Fourteen cute kitty applique patterns – full size so there’s no enlarging needed
  • Reversed and exploded appliqué patterns to print directly onto freezer paper or fusible adhesive. No tracing! Every piece is labeled so it’s easy to assemble after you’ve cut it all apart.
  • SVG files for use with electric cutting machines.
  • Detailed instructions and lots of step by step photos – you’ll never feel lost or wonder if you’re doing it right.
  • Detailed cutting instructions for crib, nap and twin sized quilts. (There's info for additional sizes here.)
  • Instructions for assembling the quilt – layering, basting, quilting and binding – with links to videos for all of them - including links to Quilt As You Go videos.
  • Links to videos teaching you all the skills you’ll need to complete the project. It’s a workshop disguised as a pattern!

    Size

    Each block finishes at 10" square. The pattern includes detailed instructions for the following sizes. . .

    • crib (50" square - 25 blocks)
    • napping (50" x 60" - 30 blocks) - this is my favorite size for on the couch
    • twin (70" x 90" - 63 blocks)

      Difficulty

      I designed this quilt to teach appliqué – so it’s great for beginners, and a fun and relaxing project for more experienced stitchers. If you can use your sewing machine, you have the skills you need to make this cuddly cats quilt.

      I used appliqué with fusible adhesive and Quilt As You Go to make a super easy quilt - almost all done on the machine. The pattern also includes links to videos teaching needle turn appliqué and machine appliqué with freezer paper, in case you prefer those methods.

      Excited to get started!

      This my next project. I have enjoyed watching the related videosand learning from them, sourcing materials and making my plans. I live in Canada near Niagara Falls and had to make a trip stateside to find the double sided interfacing! Adds to the adventure! I love the quilt as you go technique and think it is going to be a lot of fun to make and assemble!

      Happy cats

      Instead of quilting I am solar dyeing using the cats as a template. At the moment the sun here in Auckland New Zealand is not bright enough. Having another cup of coffee.

      Cuddly cats

      I am going to be using the fusible adhesive should I be using the exploded version they seem very big for a block that’s going to be cut to 10 inches or do I print it according to my preference? At what percent did you print your cats for your cat quilt. I would appreciate your input. Can’t wait to get started.
      Sincerely

      Love the faces of these applique cats. Easy instructions for beginners. I am first time trying applique and found it easy and very happy with the result.
