It is time to make a quilt block for NHK's Partnership Quilt Project at Tokyo International Great Quilt Festival 2020, to be held in Tokyo Dome in January next year.
More information can be found on the official website. Sorry only in Japanese.
Under the tag NHK, above, you can read about this project and see my previous entires.

The theme this time is MY FAVOURITE ANIMAL.
In tonight's TV program and on the website, the suggestions were many.
There are a lot of different animals to love - pets, farm animals, wild animals, endangered spieces, zoo animals, or indeed, Newt Scamander's Fantastic Beasts.
Then think of all the things around animals, their food, nests, foot prints, or accessories (dog collar and leash, cat's ball, elephant's embellished covers....

Another cat? I made this one in 2007 (the theme was Basket), or something totally different?

There's a meme going around at the moment: "Always be yourself - unless you can be a red panda. Then always be a red panda"....
I look forward to seeing your block.
How exciting, a new project goal!
This looks like a fun design challenge, I'll stay tuned for the updates and to cheer you on.
All I need now is another project with a deadline!!!
No quilting for a quilt festival? i do like your kitty.
I am thinking about what my block will be, but haven't come up with a brilliant idea yet. Pandas and cats are my favorites.
Lovely basket and such a sweet, realistic, kitten. We now have to wait through the next 2 months to see your entry. Best wishes and happy stitching.
Thank you for the information! I'd better start at least thinking if not doing. I wonder how many cat blocks there are going to be in the Partnership quilts. I'd sure like to be original but you know where I stand with cats...
