I had about a million ideas for my project but was having a little trouble with the shape of a cat that I wanted to use, but then loving blogland as I do I found the most wonderful cat shapes!!!! Hilary Florence's Nine Lives Quilt!!!!! She gave me permission to use her idea for the cat shape!!!! She is very sweet and an excellent quilter and artist!!!! Thanks Hilary!!!!
I wound up with lots of issues...my sewing machine is trying to die....so sad!!! But all and all I had lots of fun, learned a lot of things not to do anymore...get done in time to take daylight pics!!!! Even with all the problems....

This is it during the daylight before all the issues!!!!!!
I call my quilting A Wiggle and A Giggle!!!!! Well!!!!! You gotta laugh!!!!! It was very fun to do!!!!! My poor cat has a screen door tail...you know crooked from being hit with the screen door!!!!! Her name is Tricksie and she will be out sweetly scaring those who don't like black cats to cross their paths!!!! Me!!!! I love Black Cats!!!! Have a safe and wonderful Halloween!!!!!! hugs

I lost a machine too (I have two others) - must have been the black cat thing. BUT I love black cats - Moe would be so happy. I think she is just too cute and way to stay with it.
Haha...I love the name of your quilt! It's adorable and perfectly suits it's name. I had a black cat named Shadow who would sneak into other people's houses through their doggy doors. He freaked out a few of our neighbor's dogs!
I love your quilt and black cats. I have a twelve year old named Skeezer that I found as a kitten at the local gas station. Many tried to catch him and trap him but I was the only one who he would let touch him. The day before Halloween he hopped in my car,curled up on my lap and refused to leave. That's the day he became a member of the household.
Love your quilt, and the kitty's tail reminds me of what happened to one that I had! Sewing machines and computers always know when to mess with your life, lol. Thank you for sharing.
A good looking cat quilt! My cat does not have a crooked tail, but it has been close a few times...
Black cats are jinxsters!! Your cat pattern is perfect and the name is so cute!!

Your quilt is adorable with the black cat. In my childhood there was a lovely black cat in the family and I love black cats too.
Sad thing with a dying sewing machine, sometimes it is like a family member.
Have in spite of that a great week and there are always neat machines in the market.

Such a cute quilt. I love the bright, happy background. Hope your sewing machine gets better or that the quilt fairy brings you a new one.
Your cat is adorable!! You powered through the problems and got a finish - that's always a plus!!! I love black cats too - had one named Trick or Treat when the kids were young and my daughter has one now named Guinness (GG for short) - they are just wonderful!
How very clever and cute Wiggle and Giggle turned out. Yes, thankfully life happens...including screen door tails. Thank you sew very much for participating and hopping. Creative Black Cat Crossing Bliss...

Your quilt is too cute. Love the bright, happy colors you used.
Really cute, Carla!
What a colorful and fun quilt. So glad you were able to finish in spite of issues. Nothing like a deadline to bring on the issues. LOL Thank you for sharing.
Carla My Friend!!! I Love It!!!
You did great! You know this quilting thing is addictive Doncha? LOL
Love and miss ya Gf.
So sad about your machine. It always seems like Murphy's Law attacks while power sewing for a deadline. Your quilt is really darling. My grandmother would have said--"Its the cat's meow!" lol.
What a sweet black cat project, and I love the bright background fabrics.
I like your colorful quilt very much !
Very cute. I switch up machines all the times. My girls are temperamental.
she is very sweet! Love the bright co!ours you used.
Despite your problems your creation is fabulous. Great job!
Maybe it's just the season...witches' curses, etc. on that machine of yours. :( Sweet project - love all the bright colors.
What a cheerful quilt. Very sweet.
Love the silhouette of the cat on all that color. Great quilt!
I like how the tiny pumpkins peek out from behind the cat. This project is too cute!

What a spooktacular little quilt. Love the sweet kitty silhouette.
Love your black cat! puuuuurrrrfect!
I love the name of your quilt and the colors in day light just pop.
You say she has a screen door tail, but maybe it's from dancing on the moon so much, someone may have stepped on it! yessewingisfun@yahoo.com
So fun :) (The quilt, not your challenges!) It's so bright and perky - I really love the shot of it in the dark, and yet it stands out so nicely.
I love this quilt!! It is nice and bright:)
Carla I just LOVE your Black Cat quilt to pieces!!!!
nice crazy cat quilt!
Love the bright happy colors. Don't you hate it when you have one of THOSE sewing days!?!
Trixie is just too cute and looks great on that bright, happy background. So sad about the machine but on the bright side you can get a new one now!
Pretty quilt. That's a good night pic.
I love this! I'm sad to hear about your machine and hope you can find a new "friend" to help you continue to create even more awesome projects! Thanks for sharing your creation with us.
Trixie is adorable and I love the name you gave your darling quilt. Too fun! Sewing machines always pick the most inopportune moments to act up, don't they?
It is really adorable Carla.
Absolutely fantastic job Carla! thank you so much for sharing and for hopping along the Wicked trail this year!
Sorry to hear of your sewing machine woes! It's the pits when it isn't working properly. Cute design.
I can sympathize with your sewing machine issues. I have one that makes a terrible sound but the mechanic says just use it till it dies and then replace the motor. What an adorable quilt. I love the bright colors. So glad you persevered through all the "issues"!
Carla...a sweet black cat quilt...not too spooky, that is the way I like it! Sorry to hear you sewing machine has an 'attitude'. There is nothing worse than sewing machines and computers having 'issues'! Thanks for sharing your adorable Halloween quilt!!
Cute Carla. I like the pops of turquoise
Love, LOVE your header & quote!!! And, your cat's screen door tail is perfectly imperfect - love that, too! :-)
