In between baby sleeps and school runs this week I've been finishing off this little round faced cat. I fussed over this one to a ridiculous extent. I'm so pleased with how he came out, though. Just like my sketch for once! It's all about the lilac coloured wool flannel - so pretty and soft. Do I have more lilac Marmalades queued in my head? You betcha. upesmgw849

Oh he is just so gorgeous. Can I ask a question, where do you purchase your wool flannel as I have a monkey to make and it uses the same fabric.

Marmalade looks very dapper with his tie and all, and gosh he has such a winning smile too! :)

The tie and denim is just the right touch that makes Marmalade amazingly beautiful!

The cravat is divine!

Um, not to be mean, but he is a bit too good for grubby little hands, don't you think? I mean, any one of us would be happy to take care of him...

What a sweet little cat! I love tie around its neck, too. Perfect... can't wait to see the rest of them & I think it's so amazing that you got this done in between moments. It inspires me to make better use of my own time.
