    I like the cat & mouse one, but I would do it in Tunisian from a graph so I could work it all in one piece….I hate sewing blocks together! Having looked at the pattern supplied by Caron.com, they should have included a graph of stitches for the cat & mouse showing facial features so the crocheter would have the correct placement.

      Me too. I cannot believe how hard it is to find crocheted farm animal appliques, cross-stitch for knitted or crocheted squares, or granny squares!
