Cat Before Bunny 2020 Part 3

Now I have had a break I can continue repairing the Leg

Top Edge Sewn

I Sew the Top Edge of the Thigh in Blanket Stitch.

Inside Out Curve

I have turned the material Inside Out. I Sew across the Corner of the Thigh with a simple Backstitch. This is not a straight line but a Curved one.

Cut Curve

Once the Curve is Sewn I cut off the excess. I then strengthen it with a Blanket Stitch.

Thigh Curved

I make another Curve at the other side of the Thigh. I then repeat the process at the end of the Leg. However before Cutting I slip the Case over the stuffed Leg to check it is correct. Once finished I turn the material the right way.

All sewn up

I put the Stuffed Leg into the material and Sew up. I use Blanket Stitch to seal it. It isn’t as neat as the original but repairs never are.

Leg Re-attached

All that is left to do now is to Re-attach the Leg to the Body.

Seam Problems

Unfortunately for me Cats tend to have more than one leg. This Leg has to be repaired.

Double Split

This one has a Double Split.

Bursting at the Seams

And finally this Leg is beginning to burst at the Seams. It might be at the end of the blog but work still goes on behind the scenes – or should that be behind the Seams?
