Pam Palmer's Cat


The reason I bought Pam's latest book was for this dear little cat on the cover. It's a real sweetie.

It's taken me a few weeks to get 'roundtoit' as it's written in four sections with four 'lots' of cut and ties. Well, you know me - I don't like too many stops and starts!!!

I sat down and managed to make the cat in two passes!!! Took some working out but I got there! Fortunately I've written down my 'destructions' so I can make it again.  In the picture below I’ve not got round to adding the whiskers.  Well I don’t ‘do’ miracles and get something finished in one ‘sitting’!!!!

After the next cat I may tackle the teddy bear in the book. I do LOVE Pam's patterns and I remember meeting her many, many years ago when she took photos of my back. Yes, my best photos are of my back! Why? Well, I was wearing a cardigan on which I'd sewn her elephant design!!!!

Wonderful cat! I see beads in the future for that Cheshire type smile waiting to come out. I too try to write out my De-structions. Sometimes they actually end up with the book too!

Love cats, then tatted cats are the ultimate!

Ah, in my ‘good intentions’ book, picotsnkeys I’m going to print off my destructions and put them in the book. BUT I know me too well and I doubt it’ll happen!!!
