Oh, the pesky cat and it's fur and other unmentionables. Needless to say, mine will sit on just about anything you don't want her to sit on...your favorite blanket, a scarf, she'll even hop into plastic bags when you get home from the grocery store. So the solution? Lay a towel or blanket you don't care much for on the ground. It works, but it's not pretty. The pretty solution? A designer kitty cushion that will hold whatever you want it to: old towels, blankets, or t-shirts.
Make your own! Buy 1/2 yard of adorable print fabric and fashion your cushion after the sham pillowcases with the overlapping back flap down the middle. (Thanks for the idea, Lo!) After I made the cuts for the pattern, I put a dash of embroidery on the top and then sewed the pieces together.
Fabric found at JoAnn's. BTW: Did you know JoAnn's has a VIP program where you can get 10% every purchase*?

1. I need that VIP thing.
ReplyDelete2. When you make the next one you should totally draw up a pattern and post it up here! PDF it up, lady!
3. Precious looks adorable, even with her unmentionables constantly annoying us.
I totally started a pattern and noticed that my pattern making skills need some time and work. Not as quick as I'd hope it would be. Perhaps in the future, a re-post with pattern.
