CATS ON TUESDAY!
For more Cats on Tuesday, Please visit to Gattina.
Here I am, this is my 2nd. week of "Cats on Tuesday"!!!!
Thank you all for visiting my blog last Tuesday :)
This is actually my first dress that I ever made for Amanda about couple months ago.
I thought it came out just okay, and I liked the fabric.
But Amanda wasn't quite comfortable to wear this dress.
You can see it from her face... she doesn't like it at all.....
The problem was,,,, I made this dress with using the dog costume pattern, and it would wrapped around her body and her chest wholly.
Plus,, it does look so baggy....
So, I had to modify the pattern to fit better, and something less stress for Amanda.
Prototype 1 - Red Rose Dress
oversized!!!!!!
back style - with big red ribbon
I eliminated the part wraps around the chest to make it more flexible and comfortable, just fastens at neck and belly with velcro.
But....too loose around the neck this time.
Oh No,,, I didn't get the size right this time again....
Prototype 2- Green Polka-Dot Dress
SIGH......
After this green dress, I made a yellow polka-dot dress for her, and it came out just perfect!!
Finally..... :)

Oh my goodness! Those dresses are the cutest! Love the fabric patterns. Amanda looks precious wearing them!
ReplyDeleteLove the polka-dots...do them come in tuna flavor?
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, these dresses are making me wish I had a girl cat. They are so cute!! Amanda is such a sweetie to be so cooperative in trying them on while you adjust the size.
ReplyDeleteI do dress my chihuahuas and it is fun.
I will say again I just love your blog, and I predict you are going to have many followers.

ReplyDeleteAu and Target are shuddering at the thought of being dressed - but they're tough mancats! Amanda looks pretty in polka dots.
ReplyDeleteOh, these are so cute! I love polkadots! Amanda looks soooo pretty, and the green matches her eyes!
ReplyDeleteOooh you look so lovely in that floral printed dress!
ReplyDeleteWhat adorable dresses!
ReplyDeleteBoth Amanda's dresses are lovely!
ReplyDeletePoor Amanda ! what a good cat and she looks so cute in this dress, but I think she prefers her fur coat, lol ! I couldn't even try that on one of my cats, they would get very upset and hiss me away !

** Brian,
Tuna flavor!! What a great idea!!
** Iris,
It's very generous to say that :) Thanks!
** Cindy,
Thank you for visiting my blog :)
Answer to you question, Amanda usually does not wear her dresses for long time, maybe 10 min. max. just long enough for me to take nice pictures. I do love to see her in cute dresses, but at the same time, I do believe that she should not be in clothes for a long time. Amanda is very easy-going and most of the time, she doesn't mind wearing them for a while, but she needs to gloom herself :)
What pretty dresses!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness! You made those dresses!? They are beautiful. You are a very good seamstress, and Amanda is a wonderful model:)
ReplyDeletewhat a LOVELY dress! Mom loves it! " mommeh, dun git any funneh ideas..." -tesla
ReplyDeleteOh I hear polka dots will be big for Spring and
ReplyDeleteSummer for fashion! ha ha These dresses are so
cute, but I am very lucky my cats will stay in a
hat for a few seconds, not so sure about a dress?!
Have a happy day! :)
