It's been a slow morning. I've been able to get only one item into the shop this morning, but it's nice! A set of 16, 6.5" quilt squares with cherry cats on them.
I was poking around in my stash, and I ran across a little bunch of this fabric. I had to smile....I didn't think I had this much left.....maybe a quarter yard or so. This comes from a full-front apron I made for my sister last year for Christmas. It was one of two. The other apron had coffee mugs all over it...coffee...one of her favorite things!

Anyhow, as I looked at it, I immediately thought of my Attic Window Cats iron-on appliques, and I thought, "Wow! I'm going to do these up into attic window blocks!
These are on 6.5" squares, so I thought they'd work up well into a 12" block. So the first thing I did was try to find a pattern on the internet with dimensions for doing a large size attic window block.
After a while, I came to the conclusion I was not going to find such a thing. That's not to say it's not out there, I just can't find it. So I thought, "Hey! You can plot the block out yourself! It's just a matter of measurements!"

But, the fact is, I have no fabrics suitable for attic window blocks for these kitties. So, they're being sold as squares.
Which is just as well, because now I have time to go peel an orange and relax a moment before moving on to the next project.....
Time to sandwich up the Oak leaf and begin the quilting! I love this part! You guys have a great day!
