Halloween Owl and Kitten Quilt Top

I thought that since Roy the Foster Kitten was finally behind bars (at the shelter), I would be able to sleep in this morning. Unfortunately, there was a raucous party in the sewing room. I had made another brown owl last night, and apparently the other owls decided to dress him up for Halloween. So the trick is on me. For treats, you will have to visit the Rainbow Scrappy Challenge.

As best as I could figure out, these were the ringleaders, although they refer to themselves as the party planning committee.

 Lucky for me, the kittens couldn't get involved because they are now safely enclosed within a border of kitten ears.

Purrfect border for the kitty blocks! Beautiful quilt! Seeing finished quilts coming together near the end of the year is always so much fun!

The Owls are so adorable. The kitties quilt is purfect.

Cathy said...

Don't know if the latest owl is monkeying around or clowning around.
Love how you made that border and then laid it out to match the color of the kitties in the quilt. Clever idea. The quilt isn't bad either. I love the layout.

The kitten quilt is a triumph. Love the border.

Lynne Stucke said...

I love those old owls . . . but they don't sound to be as wise as they should be with all those late hours! And the kitten quilt top is terrific . . . just such a shame you had to rob all those other kittens of all their ears!!
Seriously -- I love them both!
