Quilted cat blanket – because all cats need one! Right?
While I made a couple of log cabin pillows this autumn I started to add the scraps and uncut pieces together at random. When I had two big pieces I sewed them together and made quilt for my cat Smilla.
I wanted to create a worn look with a bit of romance to it. I only used pale colours and quilted it with brighter threads in red and pink. I’ve quilted it both by hand and by using the machine. I’ve also embroidered her name (Smilla) and I think it turned out very cute. It fits her, and as you can see below she likes it! :-)
Thanks for looking!
Some more photos of Smilla and her quilted cat blanket;
What? Who woke me up? Go make your own blanket!
S? nyyyydelig Smilla er! Teppet kler henne jammen godt ja :)
that last photo is so, so cute. reminds me of one i have of my dog sticking his hid out from under my comforter. so sweet. beautiful quilt too. i’ve been wanting to try my hand at quilting for a while now, maybe my little beagle needs one of his own… haha
It’s a beautiful quilt for a beautiful cat :-)
The quilt is lovely and Smilla is a very pretty cat.
Beautiful quilt & it looks like Smila is enjoying it!
Awww she looks really pleased with the quilt. I don’t think I’ve commented here before, so, hello!
Adorable! Both, Smilla and her blanket, great job! I’m thinking about making some high sided fabric&wool basket for my kitty, she seems to get cold lately.
Gud va s?t hon ?r! Fullst?ndigt underbar! Hon ser dessutom lite mer kattunge-aktig ut p? de h?r bilderna ?n de jag sett tidigare, gulligt! Och en kattfilt ?r v?ldigt bra att ha, speciellt om de ?r lite l?ngh?riga och tenderar att l?gga de d?r h?ren precis ?verallt…
The pairing of Smilla and the blanket is the sweetest thing EVER.
That is one spoilt cat! (Very Cute!) Lou
B?de Smilla och hennes t?cke ?r fullst?ndigt underbara!!!!!
That is just beautiful Hanna. What a lucky cat. And Smilla looks very pleased (photo 2)

That?s so lovely!
I MISS YOU! But I miss Hanna more. I’m sending you a real letter my lovely, that’s what taking me so long.. :)
Hello,
I just wanted to tell you that this post made me smile. I LOVE Smilla’s blanket! I noticed you have some written text in there, did you write on the fabric yourself, or happen to find it that way? You’ve inspired me to make a quilt for my cat Marvin. He loves quilts, and it’s about time he had his own : )

Hi Hanna!
What a sweet little quilt for an even sweeter looking kitty, Smilla!
I found out about your blog from hearing your interview on Craftypod.com. You have such a pretty accent!
I love your arts and crafts! Thank you for sharing them with us! You are very inspiring!
I like your blog. My cat is called Smilla too, I thought she was unique. She is a pretty silver tabby. Your cat is lovely too. Did you name her after Miss Smilla’s Feeling for Snow?
