Cats in the Library

[Carlie Wolf]

This is one of my latest lap quilts. I've been wanting to do a red and white quilt. The border isn't strictly red and white but I just fell in love with the fabric and thought oh what the heck I'll just do the red and whites for the center.

Beautiful!

The border fabric reminds me of a fleece throw I bought several years ago. Cats sleeping on bookcase shelves.

That is awesome! The center is great...you did a great job, and the border fabric just brings it home. It's so fun!

Thanks :-) And Vonnie it wouldn't surprise me if the border isn't the same print you talked about with your flannel one. There are cats sleeping and playing all over those bookshelves. I just couldn't get a good close up picture of it.

I'm thinking of it for a retired friend of mine. She was a teacher for many moons and she is so dedicated to caring for a group of feral cats by her house. She also is the person who started the local dog shelter years ago here and still does a lot for the PURR cat shelter here. She's such a sweet woman.

Did anyone ever read the book, DEWEY, THE SMALL-TOWN LIBRARY CAT WHO TOUCHED THE WORLD? True story. He's also featured in some videos on YouTube. You did a great job on your quilt.

Re: Cats in the Library

I never read Dewey. I'll have to take a look next time I'm at the library :-)
