Default Re-Cycled Silk, Embroidered Linen and Lace doll "The China Cat."
Used old Shantung silk blouse. Old Madeira appliqued linen hand towels that were a wedding gift years ago.
Purchased beautiful lace from Quebec to make the China Cat Doll.[ATTACH=CONFIG]437032[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]437033[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]437034[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]437035[/ATTACH]

You are truly an artist. This cat is fantastic. The cat in the background is a pretty one too. Love the shoes you made. I wanted to wear them.

Silly question - How do you refer to a cat or a dog besides "cat" or "dog"?
