Hello everyone, I just wanted to introduce myself seeing how I'm so new here. My name is Kat and my husband and son surprised me with a ferret for last mothers' day in which we named Sebastian (Bas). I have a few questions and comments so please bear with me. =) First of all, I would like to send my condolences to those who have recently had a loss and send my heart out to those who are now dealing with a tough situation as well, I hope everything works out for you all. As of recently I've decided to 'play' more with the sewing machine my Aunt gave me last April. I made a snuggly hammock bed for our ferret Bas night before last and decided I wanted to be more creative, since Christmas is coming and all, and wanted to make him a sweater to wear for his picture with Santa. =) The problem is, I can't make Bas sit still long enough to make any 'observations' on how to size him up! I'm very proud of how the bed turned out, I made a simple hammock with regular fabric (2 panels) and used a piece of denim (old levis!) for him to lay on, and stitched a piece of a very soft flannel type material (old baby blanket that stretched) for the top, for him to climb in. (Surprisingly looks professional! Not bad for an amateur! ;) So I thought it would be neat to try and make him a sweater! If anyone has any ideas or suggestions they are greatly appreciated since I scoured the web for hours and could come up with nothing. Thank You! ~Kat Composed by sacbeemail.
