A NEW SHIRT FOR FIANCE CAT!

The holidays were a very busy, but fun, time for the Cat family! Baby Cat only had time to make a couple of Christmas presents this year. One was this shirt for Fiancé Cat, doesn't it look cute on him? 

The hardest part were the buttonholes, which Baby Cat practiced many times on scrap fabric before they looked good enough to sew into the shirt. Baby Cat thought zippers were difficult to sew, but buttonholes just might be worse!

Stay tuned for Baby Brother Cat's present, which will hopefully be done while it is still winter...

Romantic Vintage Lace Headbands

These headbands are inspired by, though very different from the some of ones I have seen at Camp Hollyhock. I love how they take fabric and lace scraps, flowers and bows to make their beautiful, one-of-a-kind headbands.

 I have also been trying to make better use of cute hair accessories since I cut my hair even shorter a couple of weeks ago. This gave me the idea of designing my own headbands.

The base is a plastic headband covered with some beautiful vintage lace Plushy gave me and decorated with hot pink felt hearts and buttons. I only made two for starters, but I loved making them and am really happy with the way that they turned out, so if you love them too I would gladly make more! These two will be on Etsy soon if anyone wants one for Valentine's Day. In the absence of a suitable manikin, I am modeling them for you.

Love,

-Baby Cat
