Digital PATTERN - 15" Life size Cat

Cats certainly have a bit of a cult status on the internet, and among bear makers and collectors. So I'm not sure why it has taken us this long to finally release our Cat PATTERN - but here it is! Why not make one yourself!?

[THE STATS:]

This pattern may be a challenge for some sewers as there are quite a few elements to put together, but as long as you take it step by step you should be fine! Some basic sewing/craft-work skills might be a benefit though.

You Will Need:
• 1/4m piece of a darker coloured or patterned fur (you could try one with tabby stripes or leopard spots!?)
• 1/16m piece of the longer pile light coloured fur (for chest/tail)
• 1/16m piece of the shorter light coloured fur (for feet, back of ears,
(Or just under a 1/2m piece of a single coloured fur)
• 2 x pairs of 75mm joints for the back legs
• 2 x pars of 40mm joints for the front legs
• 1 x pair of 50mm joints for the neck
• 1 pair of 16mm black or painted glass eyes
• Embroidery nose thread
• Approx. 500g of stuffing and 200g of bead shot
• Shading medium/pendants/collar/waxed thread for whiskers if desired.
• Basic bear-making tools (scissors, sewing needles, sewing thread, stuffing tool etc.)

(If you'd like us to make up a custom Cat joint kit with all of those sizes just let us know. We can also offer kits using the available fur in stock and can help you match colours and styles to come up with your own unique mix).

Finished size approx 15" long.

Comes with simplified, step by step instructions and photos of the finished cats for reference.

All pieces are at correct size - no enlarging or reducing required.


[DISCLAIMER]
All patterns are copied exactly from my personal stock and have been hand drawn and designed by me. They are also my well loved designs and have been tested on numerous occasions - So i know that they work! Seam allowances, openings. fur directions etc have been pre-marked on the pieces.

I am also totally ok with any bears/cats made from my patterns being re-sold. Just reference the use of my pattern when describing/tagging the bear (for example 'Cat made by {insert your name} using an Emma's Bears design').

*** Please note that the pieces in the photos are simply examples of cats i have made using this pattern and are not included in the sale ***
