This flower girl is a little cranky.
Here she is in the sun-
and in the shade.
Too many pictures Mom!!
She has a dress made of Liberty cotton lawn and a soft purple cashmere sweater.
A bag for her flowers and other important stuff. I used some sweet antique trim that has been in my stash for a long while and it turned out to be exactly the right size!
One more kitty after this!
My black kitty is sweet as can be but this one is a different story. She is a goth girl or she at least aspires to be!
I just noticed that her penny slipped out of her basket and onto her sweater! Oh well- I’m not gonna worry about it. I will make sure it gets back in to her basket.
I have been waiting a while to find the right project for the wonderful octopus fabric. Her sweater is a soft blend which includes angora- I can tell because it’s fuzzy and it sheds (a bit).
I blanket stitched around the edges of the sweater and made her a pin to wear. The sweater’s buttons are Victorian era glass. The dress has vintage lace at the hem.
I kept thinking about “the sky’s the limit” as I was making this dress with clouds and flying birds. So I made this kitty a backpack to go hiking with, and she can scale great heights!
She has got an angora-blend sweater which is incredibly soft and fuzzy.
I just love this tropical fabric in the perfect scale for my creations. Her linen jacket is made from an old furniture scarf (not sure that’s what it’s called?). I used the decorative hemmed bit as part of the collar.
Her bag is also linen, made from a bit of a pair of pants.
Mr Orange kitty is an artist and he has a portfolio for his artwork.
I love his vest!
Here is his artwork-
I’m not sure that he is going to get that show he was hoping for :-)
I think that argyle is always going to be preppy. Especially on a tuxedo cat.
Under his argyle cashmere cardigan, he has Liberty cotton lawn shirt with tall ships all over it.
I never realized that there was such a thing as a solid dark brown cat but then I met one. My daughter does cat fostering and one of her temporary charges was just that! So here is to that sweet kitty.
He has a striped jacket, a handkerchief, and a messenger bag. What you can’t see here is his brown vest: but here it is (below).
Yes, it does have moons and stars on it.
Also, this brown cat is made of cashmere coat fabric- so soft!
Here is the third girl kitty-
I gave her a popping purse to contrast with the aqua.
Her cashmere sweater has a sweet lettuce edge.
Close-up of her purse-
and glass buttons.
The whole gang!
She is a kitty who loves the garden. She has her flower dress, her cashmere sweater, and her gardening basket. Her dress is made from a light vintage cotton fabric from my mom’s stash- so probably 70’s or 80’s?
She is a tweedy orange cat.
Finally I have something to show you! The last month has been nuts but this week I have gotten some studio time and here she is- the first kitty. She is a bird watcher.
A green cashmere sweater to match her green eyes.
She has binoculars and a bag where she keeps her bird watching notes.
