Hey everyone!
I hope everyones weekend is going well! I ended up spending 8hs finishing up the Cat House! Im so so so so happy with the results. Im really glad i ended up sewing the pillows, I think it was a nice touch One thing i will mention, theres so many flowers! I ended up making 35 flowers and 10 bunches of grass Holy man, i walked away twice but i will say, the results were worth it!
I took a lot of photos so Ill be posting the results in a different post (i hope yall dont mind!). I didnt want to make this post too long with the photos and tips i wrote. But once i make the other post, ill edit this post and link it at the bottom Welp, i hope you enjoy the progress photos!
Page 18 Flower: when making the white roses it tells you to flatten a small piece of double sided tape, instead of doing that I ended up rapping the double sided tape around the end to make a bubble of tape. I found it helped the bulbs a lot better
Page 18 Pillow: I took the fabric and lined up it up with the corner of the photo. Then I marked where the red dotted line was to get the basic measurements, then connect the lines! Try to be as straight as possible
*when marking your line, make sure it on the outside of the red line. So when you cut, it won’t be shorter then what you wanted it! * i can thank carpentry for that trick lol! You can always take some off but you cant add it back
Page 21 Tree: When putting on the second color, I went opposite to the darker color to give it more of a natural look After i put them all on, i took my tweezers to kinda crumple the leaves and make sure each leaf was outwards
You’ve done such an amazing job! The Cat House looks fantastic already, and I can’t wait to see the final photos. The pillows and all those flowers sound like so much work, but totally worth it — it’s going to look stunning!
