SAL #1 - Culinary Cats update

It's me back again!  This time with an update on my somewhat slow progress on SAL #1 - Culinary Cats.  As I have previously mentioned I stitched the first 2 Culinary Cats a few months ago and then got sidetracked stitching other things.

Now the time has come to finish the third cat in the series and finish the SAL.

I started stitching the sweet little kitty earlier this week and now here he is almost half way done! 
 
SAL #1 Culinary Cats - Kitty number 3
As you can now see I have stitched Kitty #3 next to Kitty #1 which probably means that you have guessed that all three kitties are on the same piece of fabric.  I am thinking of turning the finished piece into a table runner or maybe a hanging.  We shall just have to wait and see what unfolds....

Til next time, happy stitching

Cool Cats SAL - Autumn

Autumn is done, winter is coming!!

I have finished stitching my Autumn kitty, now all I have to do is actually "finish" him off properly.  At the moment I am tossing up what type of cushion to make.  I have the material but just haven't quite got the ideas flowing of which type of cushion to do.  But the inspiration will come and then all will be revealed!

But for now - here is Autumn kitty in all his wonderful autumn glory!

Cool Cats SAL #3 - Autumn

I will be back again soon once "Autumn" is finally a cushion.

Til next time, happy stitching

Mouse with Kite

I've a new finish to show you.  It's Margaret Sherry's free Spring Card Kit from "Cross Stitch Crazy", 
issue 163.
Mouse with Kite by Margaret Sherry
I should have stitched the grass in 1 stand of thread, but I did not like how it looked, so stitched it in 2 stands instead.


Until next time, Happy Stitching Everyone

Spring exchange update!

Hi ladies! I hope you are all having a fun Friday!! :D

Did everyone have fun making this exchange??? :)
When your partner receives your parcel, feel free to post it!

Olimpia and Laura will send next week, Lorraine is a bit behind but working on her parcel too, just missing to know something about Lu and Judith. Ladies, please, don't forget to send me an email and also a picture from what you're sending ;)

Let me just say that I've seen really pretty parcels! You did a great job ladies!! I was thinking on something that would be easily shipped on an envelope or a small package but.. I've seen parcels to fit a nice box! hehehe
Mine was smaller.. looks like I will have to make it up to my partner and learn to make it better next time :p Judith got mine:


I stitched three bunnies for myself and I picked my fave to stitch again for Judith :) I made an ornament and in my house I will have ornaments too, for my Easter tree! It was a small package but I hope it made my partner smile =)

A cat embroider hard

The cats and I have never been good friends, and I think this time was no exception.
To begin with I could not find all the colors and had to avail myself of some who were at home.


I repeated four times and once embroidered cloth ended minced (you know, when they become temperamental cats tear it all).
But we made up and the latter were not so bad.


I'll watch for the next challenge in May.
And I hope the kitten is better summer flea me.
Until next time.
