Scrappy Cats for Fall

From a pattern called Cat Nap for free on All People Quilt.  



I changed it a little by making their bodies 1 inch longer, so if you do that, you have to make the background square by their heads 3 1/2 x 4 1/2"

I made the "quilt" they are laying on with 2 7/8" squares

  
You can see the pillow back laying on the pillow that I made for this project. The pillow is made with a piece of fabric 22 1/2 x 24”. Finished pillow is 11 x 23 1/2”

I'm going to sew some tiny buttons on for eyes and buy some bells to sew on their collars

Happy Fall!

This is adorable. I love the idea of adding the buttons and bells. Storage is my issue with seasonal quilts and decor. I suppose you could easily take the pillow cover off and use the insert in a different cover. I just don't know what to do with all of this sort of thing when the season changes.
