Crazy cats: Clever you!


This was my very first cross stitching of Margaret Sherry´s design. Yeah, it´s old picture.... My friend finished the university and she is big lover of cats. I wanted to give her some cattish... So I adjusted this picture for her, left out "Clever you" and stitched a date of her graduation and "Ing" (it means engineer). She was crying, I was crying, but we both were happy :-)

Have a nice evening!

Getting cold

Because it is getting cold here a sweet cat all wrapped up! Happy stitching!

Glamour Puss !!

Hello,

Just wanted to share one of my favourites....The Glamour Puss :)

 
 
 
I did not stitch french knots on the title letters as given in the chart because I am not good at those and they generally turn out slightly big. I thought it would mess up the letters. What do you say? Does this looks fine too?
 
My Spring Cat is still pending for backstitching. Hopefuly, I will complete it this month end.
 
 
Have a nice day!
Preeti :)

Sal #7

At last, I managed to stitch my Bags of Fun!


Admittedly, I am a late starter, but watch out folks - I may impress myself with this! Hehehe...

Seriously, I really salute our friends who have finished their Sals.  I'm trying to tap into their super stitching spirits now....  For the rest of us, let's stitch together - yeay! :D

Cute Kitty


My friend, lover of cats had a birthday. So I decided to do this cat with a bunch of flowers. I love this Kitty, she is really cute as her name :-). I called a picture "Flowers for you" and I sent it to her as surprise. I was so affected when she received a package and wrote me how she is thankful and happy.


My post in my mother languge is here. The chart was in The World of Cross Stitching issue nr. 188.

Have a nice Saturday!

Cattitude horoscope: Aries


I know, I know... I´m sorry for longer break. I did a lot of designs, so I have to improve my posting. :-)

I´m coming back with horoscope sign Aries. It´s funny, a ram hasn´t horns so it´s a sheep in fact :-D. I said, it´s a little ram and horns are too little that they haven´t been visible yet :-)
The aries is basic, male and fire sign which is handled with Mars.

See you in the next post, original Aries post with another photos you can see here.

Have a nice Friday!

SAL #5 update !

Hello all,
Here is my update on SAL #5 Spring Bouquet.

Click on the pic for clear view

Almost done. Just the backstitching is left but my eyes are getting tired after I am done with my routine stuff. I guess it will take few or many days to complete just the backstitching.

I am happy I got until this much done :)

Thanks for looking!

SAL 6

Hi everybody,

I have to confess something.
I am gonna cheate on SAL6, sunday snooze.

I know it, i am cheating but i hope you will forgive me when

SAL #5 - First update

Well hello, long time no post!!!  It has been a little while since I last stitched on a Margaret Sherry design, but last night I finally started on my SAL #5 - Spring Bouquet.

Now, I know there isn't a lot to show at the moment, but I really wanted to let you now that I have finally started on this really sweet design.

April update - started 26/4/2014
SAL # 5 - Spring Bouquet

The fabric that I am stitching on is a 14 ct Aida - white with pink spots.  I think that this cute design will look really lovely on such a feminine looking fabric.  As you can see I have started in the middle... which unfortunately means I will be hitting all that "lovely" white on the kitty very soon!!

Hopefully I will be able to come back again real soon to show you more of my stitching on this cute design.

Hugs,

Calendar Cats: March



Hello!

This kitty absolutly got me! I love used fresh spring colours of the floss threads. This design is so cute, kitty started spring cleaning with laundering :-) Lovely... Btw, I love March. It´s month of nature waking in my country. The blossoming of trees, the first flowers and gorgeous scent of the air and yes, buzz of bees :-)

Have you nice evening (or day :-)) !

Easter is coming!

Hi,

I stitched 2 patterns of MS for easter and i will like to get your opinion about the purple chicken!
Because i dont like the french knots that much i only made the eyes with french knots and did not made them on the eggs.
I think it seems allright without them but what i am curious to your opinions.
Do you think it would look nicer with french knots on the eggs or does it look cute just the way it is right now?

Have a great weekend!
Angele

It's never too late for Christmas presents!

This week we came back home from our long winter vacation.  And I was very happy to find the package from my "Secret Santa" Julianne! My mom received it while we were travelling  and she did not want to open it and tell what was incise. And I was very excited to open it!

Julianne, thank you very much for such a beautiful pinkeep. I love these little kittens in mugs. I was going to stitch all of them for my kitchen. So, it's a good start for me! And I love all the presents that you sent to me!

(my little son already stole stickers with cats :)

Nia, thanks for the coordination and your help! It's my first cross-stitch exchange, but it's not last!

March 9, 2014

Hi again y'all!! This week is my spring break from school so I'm hoping to get a lot of cleaning (boo!) and stitching (yay!!) done.

I don't currently have any of the SAL patterns, but I found an older kit that is very similar to SAL #5 so I am working on that for the time being. This is about 5 nights of progress!



I hope to show more progress soon :)

2014 SALs


Hello ladies!! :D

I'm very happy to see some SAL updates here, you have started to stitch these adorable designs and I really want to follow you too =) But... my baby is coming very soon, this month I won't be able to start stitching any yet! After April, I hope to be as active as usual here on the group ;)

Meanwhile, don't wait for me to post, ok? hehehehe
It's the first week of the month, feel free to post your updates, no matter if you have done a lot or only a small start. Every little stitch counts, every little progress is a progress ;)
Keep those photos coming!! :D

And have fun!! :D
Hugs&smiles,
