I
selected most of my black and white fabrics for this beauty, then
added a few grays for good measure. I stitched it the last week of
2019. Each 11” block is made with four diamond in square blocks.
The design is perfect for using up remnants.
I cut
2 ½” x 4 ½” rectangles for the centers and 3 ½” half square
triangles to set them into squares. Narrow sashing of 1 ½” strips
in a white on white print frames them up nicely.
The
backing/binding is a delightful print called Cat Happy
from Windham Fabrics. If you look closely, you'll find a few
more kitties peeking out in the front triangles. I quilted with a
walking foot in white thread, using straight stitch in long wavy
lines 5/8” apart.
Curiosity
finished at 52” square, a nice size for cat napping.

Once
we believe in ourselves, we can experience curiosity, wonder,
spontaneous delight, or any experience that reveals the human spirit.
