I started sewing at 8:30 am central time and at 10:00 am I had my 'dancing' and 'mooshy' 9 patches completed. (I had sewn strip sets the day before but cut and completed the 9 patches today.) After checking in and chatting a bit, I headed back downstairs to the sewing room. 
At 12:30 pm, I took a lunch break and had sewn my inner top together! Just the borders remaining. I really didn't think I would progress so far and as a result, I hadn't thought too much about the borders. Time to go to the closet...I was stuck because this quilt (when finished) will be joining Pam's M2M and I didn't want it to be too girl-y. So I choose a multi-colored dot on black. not sure I like the borders but sometimes, finished is a good thing.
At 3:30 pm, this is my end result. A quilt top flimsy that is about 46 x 53!Thank You to the ZFAB's for inviting me to the cyber sew-in today! It was fun, 'fiend' :)

Your top looks terrific, Pat. At first I thought the red cats were stars... until I looked at the big picture. I hope to be quiltathon-ing tomorrow!
I love those cats!!
oh it looks great! and I love your borders!!!
I took your lesson to heart on the borders though I had to take one apart three times as I kept stitching it a bit too long.
It turned out wonderfully, Pat and I hope you had a good time sewing with us FABS.
What a great quilt. The black border is perfect for it.
Love your sewing day effort Pat! Great job on getting a top in a day done. Hugs, Finn
