Cat's Meow

Melissa Gaggiano doll design
    On the weekend, quite on a whim, I made another doll. I mix and matched pieces from different patterns I had designed, and I altered the head of the doll to make it seem cat-like. I also up cycled the fabric. I don't often work with knitted fabric when using a sewing machine, but I had a winter shirt that I simply was not wearing, so it got used. I got to say sewing with knit is a bit like roller skating with crazy loose wheel steering. But it was oh so much easier turning the doll through and putting in doll filler.
