The cat fabric is by Dan Miller and each one is fussy cut. The white plaid in the snowballs has a nice texture, too.
I stippled in the middle and did a spiral in the red border. Then in the brown border I quilted the names of many cat coloration and breeds ("Tabby" "Tuxedo" "Maine Coon" "Siamese" etc.)
I also quilted four cats based on this design from the Inbox Jaunt. Two were more or less the same as the tutorial, then I did one lying and one from the side. The matching thread makes it hard to see all the quilting, so that will be fun for someone to discover.
