Sasha and Sushi

I was inspired by these two pictures I picked up at a Goodwill store.
I loved the cat and thought it would make a great stuffed animal.
So, i made two, (since they are Siamese cats ).
Here's Sasha and Sushi. (Please click on the pics for larger views).

I took a horrible picture with them in front of the pictures first. The pictures just screamed sixties to me and I love that kind of stuff. They are made out of what looks like fish tank gravel
ANYWAY...

Here they are alone and hopefully more in the picture!
(Sushi is in the aqua sweater and Sasha is in the orange).
I had to crochet the sweaters right onto them so they can never be taken off. (Their bodies were just shaped in such a way that it would have to be like that. But you can lift up the sweaters and look underneath and all. Just not take them off. Probably would frustrate a lot of little kids. )

Here they are from behind. Their bodies are cone shaped. Their tails are crocheted around pipe cleaners which worked great.

Oh! And their whiskers are made from a thread that feels like it is coated in wax of some sort. I got it from a kit for making moccasins. It's what was used to sew the leather strips together. They called it artificial sinew. It worked great for whiskers!
