What do you think? Continue with it or try something else?
I also thought maybe make the paw prints out of the same print fabrics that the cats are made out of? Would that be better?
Or should I just File 13 the whole idea completely?

Oops.... I just realized I should have posted this in Pictures. Sorry Patrice.
I think a 1 to 1 1/2 inch border between the cats and the paw prints to break it up some. Someone else mentioned this to.
I agree with a 1 - 1 1/2 dark frame around the border will set apart that creative border. Either applique for round paw pads, but I really love the squared one. It goes with the block shape cats!!
Great fun design!!
