Blue Patches

My lovely granddaughter took delivery of a rescue cat today. He’s called Timmy and is one year old. Mostly black with white paws and looks a long cat in the photo I’ve seen. Annalise has wanted a cat for years and now she has one to love.

A couple of days ago I decided to make him a quilt. I hope Timmy likes it and Annalise approves!

I decided to use 3.5” squares from my collection and a lot of them are blue so I’m linking with Angela’s So Scrappy RSC blog.


The backing was part of a curtain from a child’s bedroom. No idea how I acquired it! I’ve had it in my stash for many years and have never used it because it’s such bright colours. But I think it’s perfect for this little quilt.


The binding was made from three leftover bits of blue binding.
The quilt measures  24” square and was machine quilted.

  6. How exciting that Annalise has a furbaby to love! And you are a sweet to make Timmy a kitty quilt. Our cats love theirs. Very clever of you to use a (cute) curtain as backing. I’ve found cute cotton curtains recently at the thrift shop - saves a bit on the budget. xo
