Another Colourpoint Cat

I always enjoy linking up with Angela of So Scrappy for organising all the RSC sewers, the colour this month is dark green.  Once again, I decided to tackle the more involved block that I stitch each month, to get it out of the way before sewing the easier blocks.  The cat block involves both paper piecing and curved seams, and takes me absolutely ages to complete each month.  Phew, but it’s safely done now, thank goodness.

This month’s cat block

The very dark green fabric chosen is a grey-green, and looks rather like our seal point Birman Gemma.  The fabric used in all the tummies of the cat blocks has little pussy paw prints over it.  And here they all are together, all the cats in the cattery so far. 

Five blocks so far

Like most cats, Gemma can’t help herself and has to investigate anything quilty laid down on the carpet.  After all, she thinks, isn’t it all about her?

Gemma thinks she is in charge

So this particular block is now done and dusted for RSC stitching, although I do have others I’m making as well.  Better get the dark greens organised and prepare my other blocks for later in the week.  I like to have them cut out and pinned, ready to sew.
