Lucy Makes a Quilt by Helen Frost   

Renowned quilter, designer and author Helen Frost says: "My cat Lucy loves to get in the way when I am working on a quilt. This is an accurate portrayal of her antics.  I had fun finding the perfect fabrics, including the three Australian prints used to create this naughty kitty."

We got carried away admiring each of the blocks.  Here are some closeup photos:

To show her real-life inspiration for the quilt, Helen provided a photo of Lucy sitting on the work in progress:
