TripleB and Granpa's Cat
« on: April 20, 2011, 12:00:08 am »
A while ago "Triple B" posted a picture of their cat they wanted help making a pattern from. Grandpa made a pattern, and I loved it. My mom loves cats so I decided to make it for mothers day.
The thread with the original picture and pattern is here http://stevedgood.com/community/index.php?topic=5391.0
Made with 1/8" baltic birch ply and a backer of ply stained "early american".
Thanks Triple B for having a cute cat, Granpa for making the awesome pattern and GreyBeard for the glass in the frame ;) What would I do with out all of you guys?!?!

Katie, I finished mine today and was going to post it tomorrow, now I don't have too! LOL When I cut mine I left the blanket out because I thought it wouldn't look right, well after seeing yours I guess I'm gonna have to pull it out of the frame and do some more cutting, because yours looks much better than mine. As for the cat, it's not mine, but it belonged to a very good friend of mine. She had it for about 10 years and it recently passed, so I thought this might help cheer her up a bit. Great job on it. And also a HUGE Thanks to Grandpa Paul, he simply is awesome!

Very Nice, Katie!

Next to "Southwest" style cuttings I think I enjoy the Cat/Kitten things the most. They always bring out the "OOOOH's and AAAH's" from everyone.

And glad I was able to contribute something toward such a special gift!
