Blogger's Quilt Festival: Psycatdelic




Hey there! Good morning and thanks for stopping by! Thanks to Amy's Creative Side for hosting the Blogger's Quilt Festival. Today I'm here to show off my "Psycatdelic" quilt from the Folk Art Cats pattern, designed by John Simpkins.


Sorry that picture is a little wonky. Blame my crazy family members who were holding it up when I finished it at a family weekend get together in March.

I started working on this quilt on October 27, 2012, and finished it up on March 20, 2015, and that made it my oldest UFO to that point. It was fantastic to take the last stitch in the binding, let me tell you.

All those bright colors made it a fun quilt to work on. Despite having it take so long, I was sad to finish up the last block and have the whole crazy cat experience come to an end. Here are some close-up images of the individual blocks.



I think of all the blocks, this next one is my favorite. It puts out such joyful energy.













This is another one of my favorites. I just like the colors.














Finally, this is the label I made for my quilt:
