The wedding cats continued

I have gotten a little fit further on the wedding sampler,
there is a mistake in the chart, don't know if you can see it, but the finished rope on the left is one square to the right. (over the cat's paw).

But they look happy just the same. I have also gotten a bit further on the angels for my aunt. But I haven't taken a picture, because it does not show too well that I have gotten much done.

Regarding the poll, thank you to anyone who answered, I have sewn on the bow and The finished piece is ready to be shipped to my other aunt for christmas.

But why oh why, am I making things increasingly difficult for myself, by cross stitching things that are on my "Second priority list" and not from my "first priority Christmas is only two months away list!!!"???? I guess we will never know, maybe I like the pressure of finishing things on deadline, but somehow I doubt it... I never did like things like deadlines before. I am guessing it is a bit more because I am the queen of procrastination.

Together Forever and orange forever


I have started on the orange cat. This one is in more shades. I think they look so cute together.

On another note, today I was at a local yarn store and bought some fabric for a gift. My boyfriend's birthday is in a little more than two weeks. And I am making him something special.












Tadah. I think it will look great. I am not revealing what it will be when it is finished, but I think he will like it. And I think I will make some cute embellishments. Or not cute, but manly and stuff:P He likes it when I make him things. So until then, me and my sewing machine have a date.

I feel blue


So, at the moment, the wedding cats from the "together forever" kit is coming along nicely. In fact, one cat is 95 % finished. So there.
















I have just the white left in his belly and face. :) This is coming along very nicely, boyfriend predicted the wedding sampler will be done in a month. Any takers?
I can tell you I think that if you exclude the backstitch, he will most likely be right.... I really should backstitch more.
