Meet Pointie Cutie Kittie! and he is a widdle adorawable dowling!
Hubs asked me if I could make something as a gift for a work friend of his that is expecting a baby boy in the very near future.
I happened to come across the free pattern for pointy kitty while looking for ideas.
side view.
Yes I did. Cat butt. Not a feature on the original pattern.
The main fabric was left over from an apron I made waaay back.
The original pattern for Pointy Kitty had a less expressionistic mug. I love how his face came out and all the whiskery bits I added.
To date this is the most involved stuffed critter I have made. It came together fairly well with the only problems being ones I brought on myself. I wound up pushing through/splitting the seams on two legs and had to unstuff him and then restitch the legs. This meant the newly stitched leg was now shorter than it's partner...which meant I had to unstuff everything and redo all the ends of the legs so he wouldn't be wobbly. He actually is still a bit off but we can blame his imbalance on his melon sized head. His adorawable melon sized head.
Here are a few posts on crafted baby paraphernalia or stuffed critters that I have made in the past. Lots of socks were involved:
Cockroach embellished baby sleeper
Super Baby Bib
Scrap Crafty Baby Monster Plush
Sock Stuffies
Sock Skellie
Baby Sock Bunny
