My partner in the color in a box swap indicated she’d like something for her cats so I thought and thought and landed on little felt sardines in different shades of teal/turquoise.
After drafting a simple fish pattern, I cut out the little fish bodies and stitched them together. I sprinkled a little catnip inside each one and gave each little sardine a pair of x eyes because it’s really the kindest thing to do. What live fish wants to be toyed with by a cat?
All bundled together. I added some twine around their tails because you could use them as lures with your kitty but mostly because I liked them all bundled up like they’d just been fished out of the sea.
