I finished sewing down the binding on this little quilt while watching TV on Tuesday night so I can check another UFO off the list. This one is also fairly old. My journal tells me that I made the top in January 2004. It was the sample for a beginning paper piecing class that I was teaching. I finally quilted it last December and now it is bound and ready to use. It's about 28 x 28 in size. The details of the quilting are in this post.
And here's the back. The backing is the same blue fabric used on the front. It's a fun little palm tree print.
I also got a couple more pet quilts quilted last night and have one left to finish. I hope to do that today. I use these little quilts to practice my free motion quilting skills and then I donate them to the animal shelters. But first I have to go review the health and dental insurance info we received and complete new applications. Can you say yuck?

I love it! Looks like a great little quilt pattern to use some of my new batiks on! :0)
Great Job ! I love to make "cat quilts"..I have 7 of my own.. so still trying to get some more done for them. Then I can make some for the shelter. - Enjoy your blog !
Love the purple and green. The quilt is beautiful. I checked out the earlier post..the batik quilts are wonderful with color.
cute little quilt! thanks for your sweets comments on my blog today.
Hi Laura!
What a great idea, to practice your quilting on little quilts for animals. I'm just not about practicing!
Hope you go through that insurance paperwork....what a snooze fest.
Congratulations on another finish!!
