I love working with felt and wool....it feels good. So soft and cozy.
It is also very forgiving...easy to fix if you made a goof.
I particularly like to use up my scraps...I hoard them away like a squirrel.
I know its late for Valentine's...but I figure....better late than never (or next year!)
This is "Love U...Kitty cat pattern" #351
Isn't this the Cat's meow? Celebrate Valentine's day with this sweet kitty cat doll... made from chenille stems, felt and wool. This project is easy, quick, and makes a great gift. It is also purrfect for your holiday decor!
I love to use chenille stems....especially the kind with the bumps.
This pattern is in my Etsy shop
and if you want a printed/mailed pattern..it is on my website.
I used my old chocolate box for background decor...I love those boxes!
The kitty Cat measures: 6" tall from head to bottom
7 1/2" tall if including dangling legs
She doesn't have to be for Valentine's day....she could be made up in any color...holding something else.
I think her holding a banner between both hands would be super cute!

My husband wanted to know if I wanted to go out on Valentine's day for dinner or he would cook at home....I chose his wonderful Lasagna...he is a great cook...corn and red lobster cheese biscuits.
I will be in heaven and so will our daughter.
I just can't stand the crowds on these holidays....not my idea of fun.
Do you go out or stay in?
I am glad it is on Saturday this year!
Come to thrifty thursday Come to the pin me linky party and Link party palooza! and The party Bunch!
So sweet!
ReplyDeleteI hoard scraps of felt too...I have boxes and boxes of them. I use them for Christmas stockings, pillows and little felt critters. As for Valentines...I work in a Floral shop...Need I say more. :)

I bet you are soooo busy at work!! Have you seen the movie "Valentine's Day"? It is a fun movie...one of the characters own a florist shop....seemed like a super stressful time of year.
