A few months ago I posted PDF files for the Kool Kats Kwilt. Well, I broke
down and did it, sort of. LOL, the pattern says to follow the picture to
arrange cats. The scan was in black and white. It didn't really matter
since I was not following the recommended cutting instructions for 13 or so
FQs. I mostly used fabric on hand pluse the background I purchased when I
first got the pattern. You can see pictures in the KoolKatsKwilt album at
http://community.webshots.com/user/betsyross2004

You'll notice I made a change to the border. I thought that using the
background for the border helped to make the Kats stick out. Otherwise,
the top was so busy it was hard to tell what it was,

Would it be too much to ask if you would post the link to the pattern again?
Thanks!

I like your version better - the cats aren't cut off. And the border
treatment is nicer.

OMG! Someone posted a pic of this quilt a few weeks back. While I was
waiting for my extension table to come in so I could finish the giraffe
quilt for my grandmother, I thought I'd try making this one, but
couldn't find the link. So I drew one up in EQ5...but didn't use the
Snail Trail block for the tails. I don't like the way my tails turned
out at all, but what the heck. The main top is finished now, waiting
till the giraffes are finished. I'm gonna put a small background border
on it, then a small piano keys boarder (made out of the cat fabrics),
then a wider background border if I have enough fabric left. Here's the
link: http://photos.yahoo.com/cricketthutchinson in the Quilts folder.
