Cats love sitting on quilts so it makes sense to love cat quilts! There are so many fun cat quilt patterns out there and I loved rounding up my favorites to share, including some free cat quilt patterns and tutorials. I’m always drawn to bright colors and more modern prints but all of these could of course be made in more traditional fabrics as well.
