Description

I made this as a christmas present for my baby niece. It is, as my previous stuffed cat attempts, based on the pattern from “Doll Making by Runo”.
Because of a little bad planning, I didn’t have any normal “fluffy” stuffing at hand when I made this cat. My mother had some leftovers from a new foam rubber mattress which had been cut to fit into a child’s bed, so I made a kind of stuffing by cutting the foam rubber into small pieces. Therefore, the cat is a little more lumpy than if I had used normal stuffing – but then again, they say that it’s healthy for babies to feel different textures, so I guess the lumps are OK. :-)
The Norwegian winter is especially cold this year, hence the hat (with a little bit of foam rubber in it to keep it up) and scarf…

Material Notes

Cotton, denim for the ears and tail, thick cotton thread for embroidering the face, foam rubber stuffing
