IHSW November


Be still my heart!  I think I finally found a reason for not finishing something.  It’s for those times when I’m working on something I can’t show, like my exchange pieces.  Then I pull it out, work on it and TA-DA.

So; a head, a tail, some orange (what else) and a circle and a half later, I give you, (TA-DA) the Retro Cat.  Or, as he’s known around here at the moment, the Robo Cat.

 

It’s the eyes, or lack of.

 Now actually, since I get carried away with these things, while I can’t show you two of the exchange pieces I’m working on there is another.  I signed up to do an ornament and cookie exchange at my LNS next month.  Still haven’t picked out what cookies to make yet, but there’s a pattern!  I decided on Stitcheree’s latest pattern, Joy.  Here’s my humble beginning.

 

So I have stitching and turkey and cookie making to look forward to this week.  The LNS exchange may not be until next month, but I’m never going to pick a recipe without testing right?  Anyway, I hope you all have a great week and a Happy Thanksgiving to all who celebrate it this week.

Happy stitching World.
