Kitties!

3:17:kitty 1a

I haven’t made kitties in a very long time. I was sorting through fabric a while back and came across some that I thought would make a perfect kitty and VOILA! Inspired! I cut out a big pile that I am still in the midst of sewing up. I also wanted to try a different style of kitty, with the clothing as part of the piece and not removable (like how I do the dogs). That is what I am working on now. The first is a fuzzy white kitty made from a reclaimed wool/angora blend sweater.

There is nowhere outside that I can take a photo of a white kitty- all the backgrounds are still all white with snow!

2:23:kitty6We still have snow on the ground and we might or might not get more tonight. We’ll know when we wake up tomorrow. The weather forecasters seem confused. That’s New England weather for you.

Grey Kitty

Spring is here and many, many crocus are in bloom!

My son is going to Brighton, England for 3 months, starting April 1. He is looking for a place to live. If anyone has any leads, We would both appreciate it! (email me at mimik@pobox.com)

and one more boy kitty

the last one for now.

I sewed up this kitty last fall, but could not figure out what to do with him. I sewed his face and it turned out I could not move forward with it. When I started on this new set of kitties, I undid his face and started over. Now, I love him!

His bag and vest have snaps.
