I wanted to do a cat cushion to complement my Tilley dog cushion and so for a long time I keep drawing out lines and changing them until,l decided I would make a feature of the cats tail and have it curled up high,them suddenly the whole thing came in to place .I collect glass beads and I had these odd shape beads for years I just loved the colour of them never knew what I would use them for and after I had sewn the first cushion it just hit me these beads were ment to be solo cats eyes funny how thing fall together.I made six three in blue and three in red.
