Here's what the chart will look like eventually:
and the materials:
Fun fabric, no? I thought it gave a kind of motley look that you get with some cat fur patterns. Here's my start so far:
Time Spent with Cats is Never Wasted by Valentina Stitch Shop
stitched 2 over 2 on 28ct Chocolate Orange
with DMC 310
Fortunately, this pattern is compatible with Pattern Keeper. I really don't know how well I would stitch without it now, it makes life so much easier. Less counting, less stress with stitching, it's excellent. If you're eagle-eyed, you may notice some of the letters are slightly tweaked. I grew up making bubble letters, as all Gen X did, and I like the idea of making the letters look a little more like those letters from my childhood.
Hope you've all had a good stitching day,
Happy Stitching!

Early wake up so why not visiting friend's blog! So many new starts to catch up to, looks you'll be busy. Cats are always a great choice (DD2 won't desagree) it makes me remember that I have a cat pattern which waiting somewhere in a bag. Good luck with all your projects. xxx
ReplyDeleteMerci beaucoup! J'espère que tu as bien dormi. :)
DeleteI love this kind of pattern. This should be another quick finish once you find time to come back to it!
ReplyDeleteIt is fun, although I'm taking a little extra time to round the letters off when they need it.
DeleteI think one colour thread on variegated fabric is so effective, happy stitching on this
ReplyDeleteThank you! I love how it's looking so far too.
