Tatted Cat and Crinoline Belle

Both the Kitty and Crinoline Belle are tatted with size 40 thread.
Miss Kitty is a pattern by Inga Madsen in her book "Tatted Animals".  The color is Lizbeth thread size 40, Falling Leaves #100.
"Miss Caroline, the Crinoline Belle" pattern is by Martha Ess. http://www.georgiaseitz.com/2003/esscaroline.html   I had some problems with the skirt and need to make another one to see if I can get the lines straight in the center. Other than that it was an easy pattern to tat. The color is Lizbeth thread #620 Azalea Med. A bright thread color!

The cat looks so cheerful. She's almost ready to purr! :)

Those look great. Yes, the cat looks sort of smug, pleased with life.

Those are really pretty. I've always wanted to learn tatting. I could never get the hang of it.
