Thanks for doing the pattern for me Kev.  "Finally" found glass that would do for an orange cat (my husband though I was nuts 'cause I could not tell him exactly what I wanted, just that I would know it when I saw it), and I found the right glass 6 days before I needed to have the piece done.  I had only been looking for the "right" glass for 2 mths.  Anyway, gave the piece as a birthday gift today, and there were tears.  He really liked it.  His reaction was "it's the big guy".  Made me feel like I had done a good job.

Oh Karen, he's beautiful! I wish we could have been there. Kev you just did an awesome job on the pattern, one of the best cat patterns I've ever seen and it captured the big guy so well.  A great job Karen.

Thanks everyone.  I was a little afraid of the foil overlay, but it worked out OK.

Trying again as my last comment seems to have got lost in the ether......   That is a superb cat!  Congratulations both to pattern designer and builder!  I just expect him to start purring....
