Meow-velous Gift!

The Dreamer and Caveman were invited to a wonderfully whimsical fairy-themed birthday party of a sweet friend! The party was hands-down the best kids' party that we have been invited to attend. There was a fairy food buffet and fairy tinkering stations for the mixing of magic pixie dust and fairy house/garden decorating. The party was magically fanciful and quietly invigorating by enchanting little minds and imaginations. 

Upon receiving our invite, we knew that we had to create a perfect gift for a kind and delightful little girl...

Sew... 

We sewed a little cosmopolitan fairy cat. 

 

First, we needle felted a head and tail

Second, we sewed a little muslin body and stuffed it with loose batting.

Third, we attached the head and tail to the muslin body by hand stitching and covered our stitching with a layer of felted wool.

Fourth, we decorated the body with tabby stripes, little cat foot pads and claws, and tummy scruff using fabric pens. 

Fifth, we accessorized! We sewed a vest, socks, scarf, fairy skirt, and leather satchel. We crafted spectacles using gold craft wire and decorated a wand and straw cap with elastic and rosettes using a hot glue gun! 

Finally, our socialite feline was complete!
