My participation in the new contest: love for cats

Hello, my talented friends from the DIYhub and Hive communities in general. I hope you are all well. Today, I want to take part in the new contest of the month, dedicated to those beings who are very important and part of our lives, especially cats. I made this elegant tie and collar especially for the cat in our house, whose name is Luciano. I can tell you that Luciano is a very calm, gentle, very loving, and since he was little, he has been very playful and not at all aggressive. I hope you find it useful. Before continuing, I would like to take this opportunity to invite my friends to take part in this new contest @rameuris @yagelybr @katiuskamata and show us their talent.

Materials I used to make the elegant tie:
-Fabric
-Sewing thread
-Needle
-Scissors
-Elastic

Here are the steps to follow to make our elegant tie:
First step: we will start by cutting the fabric for the tie. For this, I used blue fabric. First, we will fold the fabric in half. I used two fingers' width. After folding the fabric in half, continue cutting it with scissors. For the length of the tie, I used 10 centimeters.

Second step: Next, take a brown fabric with blue designs, fold it, and cut it with semi-V-shaped tips. The width of the collar should be to your liking and comfortable for the cat, so I made it a little large so that it wouldn't be too tight.

Step 3: Next, in our third step, take the pieces you cut out in the previous step and sew around the entire edge. The seam should be done with the fabric inside out.

Step 4: Once we have sewn the seam, we will carefully turn the fabric over so that it is on the right side and the patterns are more visible. At the same time, we will use a semi-hot iron to stretch the seam and the fabric.

Step 5: Next, continue with step 5 by taking the tie and tying a knot at the top so that it looks like a real tie. On the elegant printed collar, continue by placing some white buttons at the ends to make it more eye-catching.

Step 6: To finish off our elegant set, we will continue by taking an elastic band and adapting it to the collar along with the tie. This way, we can put it on our cat and take it off without tightening it, as you can see, thus completing our creation.

Final result: this is how I made my beautiful tie for my beloved and pampered cat Luciano. I hope you like it and can make one for your pet. It is also useful for our adorable dogs.
