Pandacat

[caeterle]

Finally a new HeatherCat, yay!
Pandacat was really tough for me and I'm incredibly happy that I finished her, took pictures, listed her. There were times when I thought it wasn't going to happen.
First I struggled with the pattern - as you can tell the head is not tilted, it didn't make the eyes look right in the pattern, so I finally changed it - and the strap measurements, then with the bamboo and the re-weaving also took its time.
This picture doesn't show you how beautiful those greens and teals are really together, and I'm not even a fan of greens!

Pandacat is gorgeous. Great work. I love the effect of the greens.

LOVE this!!! How appropriate for pandacat to be in a bamboo forest. The colors are yummy.

This is one of my favorites of the HeatherCats.

Holy Moly! It's fantastic - love everything about it.

Congratulations for sticking with it even though it gave you a tough time. It was well worth the effort!

WOW Cat! I love the colors in the one you made much more than the original picture. The result of your hard work is wonderful!

Oh....why is she so sad? Feeling sorry for her straight away.

Beautiful piece.

Not so much sad as probably a big grumpy. Heather has several slightly grumpy cats in her collection
Maybe she knows she is one a kind?

Well, I am a fan of blues and greens as well as cats. This must be almost organic in real life. Are you planning a "Grumpy" in the future? (And am silently sending you wishes of strength to carry on right now.)

[caeterle]

Thank you so much, Sue, also for the wishes ❤

There is one Grouchycat I made, I think it was even the first HeatherCat pendant. Who wouldn't be grouchy with a bird picking on you?



There's also a follow up painting to Grouchycat called Notquitesogrouchycat.


The details don't come out well in beads without making the piece really big, though.
