This cat's paw footbag design came about when I realized I could sew the bags outward into these further dimensions. Each pad of the cat's paw is an individual bag that all come together in the center, similar to another of my original designs I'll post later called a blister bag.
A variation of this design, the Panther, was picked up by HackySack and distributed by Wham-O. They do give me credit for the design on the packaging.
The sides of each paw on this bag are ultra suede sewn into leopard faux fur for the face. Fill is plastic granulate.
Excited to join the NeedleWorkMonday group.
Thanks for reading! Please follow @hanedane

The colors and design are pretty cool! I like the way the ball turns out, the individual bags and shapes would give it a bit more erratic reaction to being played with and add some complexity.
Cool that they acknowledged your design on the packaging!

That is a very unique footbag! So is called cat’s paw because of the design and the fabric used? Do you also use leather to make these footbags? Congratulations on making your own design and receiving credits! That’s pretty awesome on being a four-time footbag world champion! Congratulations on all of your achievements!
