This is my first from a new design. Although he reminds me a bit of Winnie the Pooh, this wasnt what I intended. My "inspiration" was Chiltern's hugmee bears of the 1950's to 1960's (my favourites).
A friend has now asked me to make her a cat--a life size one, if you please!!! I know nothing about designing cats--does anyone know where I can get a suitable pattern?

Your little bear is wonderful! Pooh is an adorable bear, and this little one has some characteristics of Pooh. I think it is the chubby little body and sweet little face you have created! Great job! I am sorry I can't help out with the kitty cat pattern.
Many Hugs Louise
Arrrgggggghhhhhhh - not a life sized cat Helen !!!! See my posting in the general discussion forum today called 'Going quietly nuts' - be afraid be very afraid Helen
Penny - lovely bear by the way Helen :hug:
I'm gonna read it now Penny. I'm very afraid too!!! I understand teddy bears-----but cats??

Helen,
Check out Lisa Pay's cat patterns. I know of two that she has that look pretty good. The one lying down (I think it is Sassy) should be life size or close to it. I sell her patterns here in the US so if you don't find them locally, I can get one to you.

good luck with your cat Helen !!! your bear is adorable!
Donna------Sassy is just what I am looking for, although I'll use a different fur. I have just managed to order a pattern!! Many thanks for the advice.

Aww Helen - I like!! I like a LOT!!!! :dance:
I have a Chiltern Hugmee, and I can see where you're coming from - well done!!! (My Chiltern is my favourite, but don't tell the others, they'll get jealous!!)
Good luck with the cat!!
