Balloon Review 084 : Cheshire Cat by Dylan Gelinas PDF
Available from http://www.slightlytwistedballoons.com (http://www.slightlytwistedballoons.com) priced $13
This design is a wonderful challenge. Be prepared as it is fairly time consuming and uses a lot of balloons but I think the end result is worth it. The head itself is nice and easy once you have mastered the side wall bubble in the 260Q. The body and the tail is made up of many balloon loops alternating in colour. Some time is needed here to get a nice body and tail shape. After a while you can switch off from the instructions and just keep going!
The only real struggle I had was getting the tail to curve nicely and to hide the many pinch twists.
The cat's feet/legs are awesome. Really well constructed.
This is the best Cheshire Cat I have seen. It's large and has plenty of character. Probably one I will save for special occasions or when I do an Alice in Wonderland themed decoration piece or party.
Well worth a purchase.
