Small wool felt sleeping kitties create a three dimensional element. More mice are scattered throughout the skirt. If the kitties are snoozing than the mice will come out to play. Vintage lace slip under the dress, and vintage linen bloomers. Tie silk shoes with a checkerboard band peek out from under her skirt.
Cat Tails is one of my favorite creations. I love a play on words and the possibilities they present. The skirt has three usages of the word Cat Tails......the cat has a tail.....cat tails grow in marshy areas.....and there is a cat reading a tale about a cat. The calico cat on the left is reading a pop up book called Puss in Boots. Visible and very obvious hand stitches are a common theme in my fabric figures. There is no mistaking the touch of the artists hand upon the art work. I also love to add a playful touch to my work. The gray and white kitty is trying to play with the dangling little fabric do-dad in the dolls hand.
