Face & Bow

• To make the whiskers, thread a needle with white thread.  Pull the ends so they are even and knot the ends together in an overhand knot. You will be working with a double strand of white thread.

• With the needle, come up from the back of the cat's head just below the center of the face area and take a stitch that is approximately 1/2" long.  Come back up at the center (going from back to front) and take another stitch. Repeat this 2 or 4 more times for a total of 4 or 6 whiskers.

• Glue a small white or pink pompom on top of the center of the whiskers and glue two googly eyes above the nose and whiskers.

• Cut a 6" piece of orange yarn.  Using a yarn needle, thread the yarn through the center of the cat's neck.  Remove the needle and tie the yarn into a bow.  Trim ends.

• Hot glue a 1" piece of magnet to the back of the cat.
