Are you a Studio Ghibli fan?<\/p>\n

A few months ago I drew a series of concept images for softie toys using Studio Ghibli’s  Kiki’s Delivery Service<\/a> <\/em>as a source of inspiration.<\/p>\n

I drew Kiki, Tombo and of course Jiji the cat.<\/p>\n

More recently, in a moment of lockdown boredom, I came back to those drawings deciding that I would design a cat sewing pattern to make a felt cat softie toy.<\/p>\n

There was just one issue. My felt fabric supplies were limited and with craft stored closed, I couldn’t just swan down to the fabric store and grab something on this crafty whim.<\/p>\n

So what I did next just might surprise you.<\/p>\n

I pulled out a box of felt scraps and worked the bits together to make an artistically up-cycled felt sheet.<\/p>\n

With a newly made felt sheets sorted, I was able to get on with making the felt cat softie.<\/p>\n
