So here’s my completed ©Disney and Thomas Kinkade Studio Mickey and Minnie Sweetheart Campfire Panel by David Textiles.

This is very simple treatment for a quilt panel. I just added two borders and put tiny quilt blocks in each corner of the outer border.

I really do expect this will end up being a cat mat I chose a thick polyester batting and Cuddle Fleece on the back. That made this a bit hard to quilt. I ended up following some of the design in the panel rather than trying to do an all-over quilt design. It’s really more tacked together than actually quilted. That’s not something I would normally do, but with the polyester batting and Cuddle Fleece back, I think that will be fine.

Here’s a close up of the “Kitty Cornered” block also known as a corner beam block. (I didn’t pick the block for it’s name, but it certainly is the perfect choice for a cat mat)!

“Kitty Cornered” Quilt Block, also called a corner beam block

I made this block using the Creative Grids® “Kitty Cornered” ruler. It makes two corners at one time. There is a great video showing how to use the tool at this link and the presenter shares a number of quilt patterns that utilize this block.

I think a couple of my friend’s cats will be very happy napping on the Cuddle Fleece side of this panel come winter. There’s plenty of room for both of them to stretch out together. Though I’m not sure these two do that!
