Last Friday she posted a video on making a Houndstooth Quilt and I found it just stunning. 2 color quilts are very striking, in my opinion. When I got home Friday night there was some black and gray yardage folded up on my cutting table - probably waiting to be put away, but it made me think of the video. I was in trouble!
I spent some time Saturday morning cutting strips for the tube portion of the project but I was trying to watch the video on my phone to make sure I was doing it right and the phone just wasn't cooperating. In other words, I did as much as I could until I could get the phone to cooperate late last night. I finally got to watch the video but I don't quite have enough yardage so I am putting this together in small chunks to take advantage of every last scrap of fabric. It's a little annoying but I can handle it!

| I don't think the quilt is as stunning close up, as opposed to from a distance, but it's a nice beginner style quilt and would be a good gift. |
There was also another slight delay in the whole process...

I was quite tempted by the houndstooth demo. It's so neat to see yours.
The delay might be caused by the your cat not liking the "hound"!
Helen
I think you must have been ignoring that cat....giggle. This is so cute!
Zorro just wanted to help!
LOL
Your quilt looks great, I think I have another quilt to add to my to-do list!
I saw the video and was tempted, but other things have priority. Now That Is One Serious Cat - NO HOUNDS!
Oh, that last photo made me LOL! : )
I still think the houndstooth looks like an army of frogs--was it you that made a houndstooth quilt a couple of years ago or so?
Very interesting........and LOL !!!!!!!!
He looks very much at home.......
I watched it and right away checked for what to use, decided on turquoise and white, since I have enough I think. I'll post a picture real soon
I think it looks great. It's very striking and your cat is a riot!
Zorro strikes again!! That is one way to get your total attention. It looks like he is becoming one of your favorites.
have not watched this one yet, but certainly will now. Loved the one on disappearing pin wheels which is on my to do list.
No Mummy you will not machine but pay me some attention instead!!
It is fascinating how easily it is created. I thought it looked like a lot of work, but it is really quite simple. I might be tempted to try something like it myself some time.
I love houndstooth - your quilt is going to be really cool! Really love your furry helper - they are so funny!
What a great pattern! It reminds me of bats so it would be great done in Halloween colours!
Zorro is a very funny little guy! Love him!
That is the funniest pic of the week. Silly cat.
Haha my cat just started doing this. I wonder if there is a feline network that they pass along all of their tips along.
