Flower Burst "Cool" Cat

For Naomi's Birthday we had a little sewing lesson. Naomi wanted to make a stuffed animal. A cat, to be more precise. I have never sewed a stuffed animal before so it was an adventure for both of us. We used the scraps from two shirts, and the stuffing from an Ikea couch cushion. And yes, it was straight from my couch.
Naomi insisted that it be called Flower Burst and after I told Naomi about a million times how cool he was going to turn out, that sort of worked its way into the name as well. I tried to tell her his last name was Leaper, but Naomi knows best so Cat it is.
Naomi did some of the cutting herself, pushed the pedal on the sewing machine for the whole project, and she also sewed the stitching for all four paws all by herself!!
