Cat's Meow
Katherine Holzknecht entered her quilt into the Kenmore Art Show held at Northlake Lutheran Church in Kenmore, Washington. On August 15, 2008, the church was broken into and her quilt, seven photographs, four computers, and miscellaneous office equipment were stolen.
Katherine altered a knitting magazine design to create this quilt. It is 44" by 71". It includes shades of brown, black, white, gray, and magenta. There are fifteen blocks of cat silhouettes. The borders have mice and stripes. The main surface of the quilt is knitted with three rows of five blocks sewn together, and the knitted border is sewn on. The backing fabric is quilted to the surface with heavy white cotton yarn. Each block is padded. The fuzzy backing fabric is rolled on the edges and sewn down as another border. This quilt was started in 2003 and quilted in 2008.
Please contact Katherine at [email protected] if you find this quilt.
