I bought the cat pattern at a guild meeting. It's called, My Cat, Cali (a depression era toy) and was designed by Kathleen Ackley. Here's a website:

The horse is almost like the scotty, but doesn't have the ears and has longer (thinner, too) I think legs. A friend gave my granddaughter one and I added a yarn mane and tail and felt ears. The woman who made it heads a church group that makes quilts and the horses are to comfort kids. (My granddaughter who is now 10 has way too many stuffed toys, but when we went to Disney World this summer, the horse was packed!)

Very cute

I can definitely see the horse working with yarn mane and tail. That would be a cute idea.

They are adorable I love them all.

Too cute

I like the depression cat pattern. It would be fast and easy. I think I could draw that one on legal size paper. I am so glad I asked for help. The patterns have to be just the front and back, no other things but the outline of the front and back. I like the idea of coloring book pages. Thanks to all of you for your kindness in helping me.

Love these! Reminds me of the one that my grandma made me waaaayyyy back in the day! It would have been about 45 years ago! The one she made me looked just like these...except that instead of having one block between the legs...I think there were 2-3...this way it was also used as a neck rest! Anyway, I used it for years and years. Sadly, it wore out and I no longer have it...but I sure have fond memories of it! :-)

love them. I think the sewing/quilting bug has bitten her.

I like the idea of adding 2-3 squares in the middle so you could use it as a neck rest. The kids always look so uncomfortable when they fall asleep in their car seats. Maybe that would help.

Actuallyt, I believe the horse is made so it can be used around the neck. the cat tail is also made of squares and crooks up at end. it has an added eat.
