Who knows what a "Clowder of Cats" is and do you use this term?
A "clowder" means a group or cluster of cats.... Which if you live on a farm like we do, you will know all too well how fast these cuties multiply! ššš
Want a quick, modern Kitty MINI quilt to showcase some of your favorite Kitty prints?
Maybe a "Clowder of Cats" is the pattern you have been looking for? With 4 different size cat blocks, you can mix and match and make any MINI quilt size. Maybe a Kitty table runner... or a kitty pillow? The pattern is also available in full - twin size.
For this doll and quilt set, I used Amanda Niederhauser of Jedit Craft Girl's Mod Meow fabrics from Riley Blake Designs. I LOVE that she used vintage pyrex as the inspiration for the the colors in this fabric line! They are sooo yummy! Amanda is a beautiful quilter herself and so she really understands how to design fabrics that will make your projects shine! I love how rich her colors are and how she plays with the shades within a color palette. I used a RBD Basic called Texture for the kitty's main body. It really does appear to have "texture" and works so perfectly for animal doll skin - with all the benefits of a woven cotton!
Did you see this teeny tiny mouse on the Mod Meow Stripes print? Too cute!!!
If you want to make your own Kitty Doll - the pattern comes in both sewing machine and embroidery machine patterns. It really has been one of my most popular doll patterns! After all, who doesn't want to snuggle with a Kitty?!!! Notice all the details - the little embroidered paw prints and multi-thread color eyes!

When I was taking photographs of these sweet projects, my youngest daughter's cat - Gandolph - kept photo bombing the photo shoot! He is NOT a curious cat and was not coming to investigate what I was doing... lol... he was coming to be hugged! He is such an affectionate cat and besides food, snuggles are his number one priority in life!
