SAL 1st finish

Hello ladies :)
I've been waiting for some more updates on our SAL, no one else has finished since Alda?

Only 4 (from 11) stitchers have stitched all cats, what happened?!
Didn't you enjoy our SAL? Do you think time was too short?
Let me know your thoughts about this, so next time we can do better ;)

I've finished my first piece, a recipe ring binder :)

You can read more about how I finished this on my blog, here and here :)

Purrfect Partners

I have recently been stitching a number of quilt squares for Quilts 4 Kids so I haven't stitched much of anything else of late!  After finishing my last quilt square, I decided to stitch something small, or even finish off a small UFO (of which there are many to choose from) before carrying on with my Margaret Sherry Culinary Cats.  So I went through the basket of UFO's and had a quick look at all the freebies in the box.. and what did I decide to finish... well another Margaret Sherry design!  Just to warm me up for my culinary cats!

I can't remember when I started stitching the "Purrfect Partners" cats.  They came as a freebie with Cross Stitcher issue 196, February 2008, but I do know that I didn't start them that long ago!  I think I started them around this time last year and for some reason put them away... as you do!  So I decided that they would be my next finish! I finished off the last of the backstitch this morning while waiting for my brother and his family to come and visit.

Purrfect Partners - Margaret Sherry

Cross Stitcher, Issue 196

 

Purrfect Partners finished 29 May 2011
No longer a 2010 UFO!

Another 2011 finish to add to the list.... now I will go back to my MS Culinary Cats and work on them for the next couple of weeks and get them finished off. 

Til next time when I wow you with my finally finished Culinary Cats,

Two cats together

Here's my second work with the cullinar cats. I hope you'll like it.
I will be waiting for another SAL.

My culinar cat

Hi all, I'm new here and this is my first post on this beautiful blog! (Thanks Nia for the welcome!)
Like you, I'm a MS lover and this is one of my finish: a book for a friend of mine where she can write a lot of recipes

Have a nice day!

My cullinar book

An original cullinar book. I used an old ring binder oh my daughter and I cover it with this original tissue. I changed the blue colour of the cats to green to fit with the tissue colours. I enjoyed very much doing this work.I hope you like it.

My third cat is done

Finally I finished my third cat. It was a great experience to stitch with so many girls the same draws.
I've already the project of my first cat ready to show.

My SAL done..!

I am so happy because I have finished all my Culinary Cats...
So.. happy dance anyone? :)
Here is a review of all my cats

February cat : I choose this cat because he/she is just like me. I use to read the recipe book before cooking, because I'm not very good at either remembering the ingredients or cooking... LOL



March cat : This is actually my favorite cat... I love the expression on his/her face and love the cake



April cat : Also love the expression.. And by the way, I made a tiny little mistake on the broken egg.. Do you notice it?



I have not had any idea on finishing the pieces.. Well, I think of framing them for the worst case
I have been enjoying this SAL very much, hope to do this kind of SAL again in the future...

Happy stitching!

Love you, Mum

Britain's No 1 CrossStitcher, Issue 237, pg 79. I stitched this for Mother's Day and made it into a card.
