Ornament #22 – Felt Kitty Cat

What????  A cat ornament???

While I generally regard myself as a “dog person”, I had cats growing up and I have a lot of friends that own some adorable felines.  Also when I spotted this little guy on Pinterest, I could resist his cuteness.

The dogs aren’t sure what to make of this.  They’ll tell you all about it at the end of the post.

I used light gray, dark gray and light tan felt and embroidery floss with a little bit of polyester fiberfill for stuffing.  I found these Christmas tree buttons that I’ve had for decades and I thought they looked good on these guys.  I used a running stitch on the light gray guy and a blanket stitch on the dark gray and the light tan kitties.

Here are some closeups.

Item #44 – Read Pride and Prejudice.

I know I’m already committed to reading 24 books with Quest46, but I wanted to add this one in.  I’ve watched the A&E version of Pride and Prejudice about 1,000 times and can quote actual lines from the show/book, but I’ve never actually read the book.  Time I changed that.

Question of the Day:  Do you leave the traditional ‘milk and cookies’ out for Santa or some other treat?

So you probably know about today’s ornament: A cat!?!?  Personally we think mom is taking this ornament thing a little too far.

Woody:  You know, I still really haven’t recovered from Ellie and Mindy coming to stay.
Mindy:  I think I could be a really good friend to a cat.
Ellie:  As long as the cat stays away from my food, I’m cool.
