STITCH 50 CATS: Easy Sewing Patterns for Cute Plush Kitties

Be the cat that got the cream with this feline collection of easy sewing patterns for the cutest cat designs, all made using simple hand-sewing techniques. Featuring the most popular and distinctive breeds - including long-haired, short-haired, hairless and even big cats - each pussycat pattern comes with step-by-step instructions and full-size templates, making them purrrfect for all abilities. The finished little kitties would make cute brooches, bag charms and home accessories, or can even be scaled up to make bigger plush toys, all of which will make your cat-loving friends have kittens! Author Alison J Reid has checked out their colourings and markings, and spent so much time trying to perfect their colourful, beautiful cats' eyes, it became an obsession! Pattern, colour and shape are key, so capturing these details in felt was important. Felt's non-fraying, double sided, robust qualities make it easy to create all the little details that make each cat breed so unique and instantly recognisable. She has also used small amounts of wool curls and roving to add texture for truly strokable results. Each cat pattern can be traced straight from the page (or enlarged if you want to sew a larger toy), and simple instructions mean that even beginners can get started. And because all the cats are sewn by hand, you don't need a sewing machine and can sit on the sofa with your cat while you sew. Why not try a Norwegian Forest Cat, Sokoke, Siamese, Sphynx and even a Lion! Colour with very clear layout and instructions. 128 pages, 237 x 223mm.
