This kitty is the second block in Fat Quarter Shops' Haunted Halloween sew-along. That tail is just not working for me. Watch for my next post, I will re-do it so it looks like it is curving instead of being broken off in two places. I think a couple of well-placed half square triangles will do the trick. Don't you agree? I think it looks weird.
It's going to be a cute table topper when it's done, but that tail just isn't working for me.
Yesterday was my birthday and look at this gorgeous arrangement my husband gave me! I wish you could smell those roses and lilies.

Happy Birthday! What a lovely time of year to celebrate it! If you join the Facebook group Kimberley’s Stitch Squad, you can see others didn’t like the tail and their solutions. Most simply added a couple of flipped corners. Some added collars. That is what I will do when I finally get to mine! Heehee. One good reason to wait is that everyone else smooths the bumps!

Happy Birthday! You are right about the tail. Pat Sloan also changed her kitty by putting angles on his “jaw” and giving him a collar.

Happy Birthday! I hope you had a wonderful day! I agree on the kitty, definitely needs some half square triangles in that tail! I many need to make that block!

Agree about the cat’s tail. Last year’s Halloween also had an unusual style for the cat’s tail, but not as awkward as this one. I’m one who waits until the quilt is revealed before devoting time to a project that might not turn out to my liking, whether it be design or fabric choices.

Happy Birthday week. Your flowers and table topper quilt are beautiful. I think you’re right putting in some 1/2 square triangles to make the tail look normal.

A belated Happy Birthday to you! I agree about your cat’s tail and can imagine the improvements you will make. That is going to be a darling table topper.

Happy belated birthday! I totally agree with you about the tail. Perhaps it got caught in a door! I’m sure that some 1/2 square triangles will it good.
