Sshhhh…. there’s a cat in our summer house. Don’t tell Ben. I wonder if she’ll turn around …..
All the way around?
What an elegant cat!
A cat called Alice!
Alice the Elegant Cat is the first pattern for the March issue of the Bustle & Sew Magazine. I have felt for a long time that there was a large, feline-shaped gap in the Bustle & Sew collection of softies, but as I have never owned a cat I wasn’t quite sure how to begin. And then I had an idea – at the end of our village is an upmarket hotel, whose resident cat is extremely snooty. He (or she, I don’t know) is a slender, elongated brown feline who loves to perch on the hotel gate post and hiss at Ben as we pass by. So Alice (who is much nicer and more friendly) reflects this elegant pose, tail curled around paws, exactly.
She measures about 12″ tall and has a nice round beach pebble in her base so she stands up nicely. Hope you like her!
I love Alice! And she is indeed a very elegant cat! I will definately have to make at least one of my own, and I’m certain that she will get along nicely with some very sweet spool mice…

What a gorgeous kitty. I do have a cat and have indeed have had many in my life and you have captured feline perfectly. I may just make one myself.
A cat! Just like I asked for some time ago. Thank you! Alice is very cute!
She reminds me of the cats in the old Disney movie Lady and the Tramp. We are siamese, if you please…. hehe She is great.
Oh she’s purrrrrfect.. can’t wait !!!
A very smart cat!
I love her! My favorite colors too! I would sew her if I sewed!
Helen, Alice is wonderful. It looks like she is waiting for a treat. I have a granddaughter that loves cats. Can’t wait until March.
What a lovely pussy!
WOW! love it! I can’t wait to receive the March issue.
I love your kitty pattern and I can’t wait for the March issue to make one. We are owned by a cheeky black cat who sits with her tail wrapped around her and looks out the window at the birds. I think I will make own in shades of black.
She would look so beautiful in my craft room
She is great. Purfect!
Alice is so pretty! I can’t wait to get my March B&S so I can attempt to make one of my own. Fabulous!
I think you’ve managed to capture a cats personality perfectly haha! Lovely cat 🙂
