Kitty Kat Pattern
Step 1: Print and cut out pattern
pieces attached in PDF file (please add a quarter of an inch seam allowance to
each pattern piece) -Kitty Kat Pattern
Step 2: Place and pin each
pattern piece to your fabric of choice. I
used a recycled wool sweater.
Step 3: Cut them out.
Step 4: Place large eye pieces on
body and sew in place using your favourite stitch. I used the running stitch for all stitching.
Step 5: Place smaller eye pieces
over large eye piece and sew. Next sew on your favourite buttons as pupils.
Step 6: For the nose, cute out
small triangle from desired fabric and stitch in place. You can also sew his
nose using embroidery stitches.
Step 7: Embellish your kitty to
your liking, using ribbons, wool, buttons, beads etc.
Step 8: For those of you using a sewing machine, pin ears face down on right side of body.
(I will explain the process of hand sewing below step 10)
Step 9: Sandwich front and back pieces, right sides of fabric together, pin and sew leaving a small opening at bottom.
Step 10: Trim and excess fabric off edges then turn Kitty to the right side.
For hand sewing: With wrong side of fabric facing each other, use blanket stitch starting at the bottom working your way up to add the ear. Continue blanket stitch and add second ear. Work your way to bottom of Kitty, leaving an opening to stuff.
Step 11: Stuff your Kitty with your favourite stuffing. I use sheep fleece.
Step 12: If you sewed it together using your sewing machine, hand stitch the opening using a blind
stitch to close off your kitty. If you hand stitched, close the opening using the blanket stitch.
Step 13: Optional: Add your favourite hair! I needle felted some merino wool and mohair locks.
Be creative! Have fun!
