FO: Catholes

I know you’re all dying to see what crazy thing I made for my brother this year. A while ago, this pattern came out, and as soon as I saw it, I knew I had to make it for my brother. But I didn’t want to make a whole quilt. So…

I made a giant body pillow instead! I made it in the colours of his dear kitty Zappa, who unfortunately passed away earlier this year.

I made it as a pillow case that can be slipped on and off (for easy washing) and it’s full lined so there are no raw edges

On the back I have this cute grey tabby fabric. It was another of my Spoonflower purchases from earlier in the year. Like the other prints, I wasn’t thrilled with quality of the printing on the fabric, but this was a good use for it.

Of course, making this just got me on a roll for other small gifts on “theme”

So, I also got him these

A cat butt cookie cutter, and a key chain…

And then this…

I mean… how could I resist?

    Hilarious!!! That relationship you have with your brother reminds me of my mom and her brother. They would try to out do each other with things like that all the time. They were so funny when they were together. It drove our prissy grandmother crazy which made it even funnier.
