Description
#42 – Cat’s Claws – OPA Sampler SAL 2023 – is a Digital PDF Pattern
Block forty two – ‘Cat’s Claws’ is drafted from scratch…..once again I couldn’t find this exact block in EQ.
It’s a combo of BB #2058a Lily Quilt Pattern and #1952a Devil’s Claws.
To my mind this block reminds me of trying to put a spreadeagled cat in a carrier with those razor sharp talons coming out every which way.
Gawd that hurts!
Cat’s Claws is the second last mystery block for our SAL.
My inspo came via a set of really cool red & white antique blocks in my collection👉👉👉
I pulled apart one of those blocks then repieced it to the correct size.
This pattern contains:
• Full size Foundation Paper Piecing pattern pages should you prefer to use FPP your block
• Piecing diagram to assemble your block
• Templates ready to trace for hand piecing
• A rotary cutting chart

Important:
To ensure accurate sizing of your blocks you first need to save the file onto your computer.
Open that file using Adobe Reader and turn off scaling: ie select ‘Print at 100%’ or ‘Actual Size’.
PLEASE READ: How to Download & Print a Digital PDF Quilt Pattern BEFORE printing off your pattern.
Once you have printed your pattern be sure to measure the one inch grid which found at the bottom left hand side of the page.
Remember, printing directly from a link usually alters the formatting and size of your pattern!
I’ve also added a 6″ grid PDF in the shop so that you can check your printer scaling which will show up any printer anomalies before you start.
I really hope you enjoy our Oldepatchart Sampler Sewalong 2023 journey…..it’s a fun project, free of stress so work at your own pace.
