Remember the purple chicken? Well I had a go at a cat. Being a cat lover, but I don't like it!

It was fiddly and has no character. I need to simplify it more but it looked boring without the strips and odd without the face?

Help please Very Happy

It's a lovely shape Libby....but yu are right the face does need a bit of definition. Can you not applique some bits on the face? Other than that it's lovely ! Smile

I loved the shape, but it needed layers, and I don't like the face so may leave it blank cos I don't think its right and embroidery or applique I think will be too fiddly as its quite small!
