Woof Woof Meow Quilt with Pockets for the Kitties

Years ago I bought a panel of cats and dogs called Woof Woof Meow.  I got a jelly roll of the fabric and while I made the cat and her kittens, I never finished up the quilt.  Well, five years later, I finally finished up the Cat Quilt with Pockets.

The cats and dogs were fabric panels designed by Stacy Iest Hsu.  If you remember I made some of these little cuties a couple of years ago.  At that time I even made them a small quilt to wrap them in so that they would stay warm.

Now I've finished the kids quilt made from the jelly roll and added five pockets to the front of the quilt.  I designed the quilt and when I bought the fabrics I knew that I wanted to add some pockets for the kittens or puppies.  

Here is a pic of two of the kittens in their little pockets.  I thought it would be fun to crawl under a quilt and have your pets close by.  You could also use the pockets for other toys, too.

Here is the quilt before I added on the pockets.  I made the pockets with a gather so that the pets would fit into them.  I have to say, I'm so glad that it's done.  I put it in my granddaughter's room in hopes that she will like it.  

What's to come?  There are still more strips in the jelly roll that have blue fabric in them.  Maybe someday I will make a second quilt with some dogs to match.  You never know.

 

Basket of Kitties

Don't you just love these little kitties?  They are a panel that I bought a couple of years ago called Woof, Woof, Meow cat panel by Stacy Iest Hsu.  There is another adult cat that I still have to make.  The set comes with the 4 kittens.  

I started making these kitties a year ago or so (ha ha) and found them in my sewing room.  Today I put together a small quilt for them to cuddle up with and hope to set them out for my granddaughter to play with.

I have a puppy dog panel and a second kitty panel to still complete.  I'm hoping by the time that I'm done that the whole basket is filled with cats and dogs galore!

The adult cats have a pouch to put the kittens in, but I think it needs extra fabric and a dart to make the pouch fit any of the babies.  You can see in the photo that the pouch is very tight.  

I will try something different for the next adult cat.  We'll see how it comes out.

I'll keep you posted on the progress.

What do you think of the kitty family?  Do you have a little one that would like to play with them?
