Finally, the Stitching Update!

I know you've all been waiting with bated breath for my stitching update!  So without further ado, here it is!

This is a finish from during March Break, I just keep forgetting to share it with you.  I had barely started this piece before I lost Cuddles, and I decided it would be a perfect memorial piece for Cuddles.  I will frame it with one of his pictures.

Petit Chat
Des Filles et une Aiguille
Stitched on : 32ct Cloudy Day Grey Belfast from Silkweavers
Stitched with overdyed cotton

I have been progressing with my Quilt Squares, I've finished two more since I last showed them to you.  I've now got a total of 4 blocks done, and I've started a 5th.  This is my on the go/I'm exhausted project.


Finally, my obsession... Enchantment of Winter!


Oh and here's a little more Zeus cuteness!

Everything looks great like always! Now do you ever get to cuddle with Zeus-always seems like Todd's the lucky one. :)

Aww...Zeus is just so sweet. What a great photo, Dani! And what a nice plan to frame your little tribute to Cuddles with one of his photos.

Love Cuddles's tribute. Very sweet and nice cheery colours to remind you of the good times.

Enchantment of Winter is just going to be stunning!!!

I love the cat pic too. It makes me want a kitten! We currently have time-shares in a cat (we have breakfast it seems!) but I've not owned a kitten since I was 4.

Looking forward to seeing more of the WIP and more Zeus too.

jane said...

I love your piece for Cuddles and the quilt squares look great too. Zeus is soooo lovely - makes me want a kitten but Miss Lottie would feel differently I think.

Kate said...

Great progress - love that kitty.

Hi Dani,

A sweet tribute to Cuddles. It
will look great next to a
picture of him.

Love all the rich, dark colors
in your quilt squares and the
designs themselves are beautiful.
A relaxing, but also rewarding
project to work on.

Enchantment of Winter is going
to be spectacular! Those
colors are incredible and it's
amazing how 3 dimensional it
looks even at this relatively
early stage.

Zeus is settling in nicely I
see. So adorable.

Cheers!

First of all, Dani, thank you for your comment on my blog with sympathy for my loss of Bear. You recognize the life-changing of the loss of a beloved kitty. They take a piece of your heart with them. They change your life when they come and change your life when they leave.

I'm glad for the visit to your blog because I love the little tribute to Cuddles, I've seen this (I think) as a freebie on a blog. It's so sweet.Quilt Squares has such a pretty variety of color, but Enchantment is stunning!

Of course the best of all is the little beauty Zeus. Looks like my 2-year-old Annie.
