Bitty Cat Ornament, The Rooster

It is a nice summer day in Cape Town, South Africa.

My daughter takes this picture of her son, Samuel

my first Grandson.

This is what she sent from South Africa

of "me" and my Grandson.

It was titled ~

Here's Mom visiting S. A. for the World Cup!

Can't find me in the picture? Well, I would be

the "Rooster" on the table!

My kids used to

call me The Rooster, because my hair

was red! And it stuck, to this day,

even after I let my hair grow out.

The reason my Grandson, Samuel looks like that?

He is scared that Rooster

is going to peck his eyes out!

I just wondered where you could

go and there would be a rooster

and a chicken on your table.

Oh yeah,

that would be in Cape Town, S. A.

My three kids got a great laugh out of

this one.

Here's another Little, Bitty cat ornament I finished.

I used another kind of thread this time.

It's Olde Willow Stitchery ~ Overcast.

But it came out

pretty light in the photo.

I have stitched this one twice but I can't

find the other one. But when I do I will

have another ornament done.

Thanks for dropping by and taking a look. I do

appreciate any and all comments. You keep me

going at a hobby I dearly love.

God Bless ~

Bitty Cat Ornament, Spot of Spring

Today, the mailman left this in my mailbox.

It's the exchange from Janice M. and I love it.

I was planning on doing this one because

I love the fat robins and it also

has daffodils in it and

I was born in March.

Perfect!

It's the start of the alphabet I will

continue to stitch until I

have them all done.

I ordered Summer and Fall tonight

and I will work on Summer as soon as it gets here.

Then I will do Fall.

Isn't it the cutest little pattern?

The tree has little flowers on it

and they are scattered all around the pattern.

I love the fat robins they are so sassy!!!

It's just Perfect all around!!!

Thanks Janice I love it!

This preview came in the mail Thursday.

I decided I would stitch the cat

with the candy cane.

I got it almost finished when I

visited a blog and the lady was

doing the same one from her preview.

I would mention her name but

I don't know if I should.

She has a solid gray cat so she made

her cat gray instead of black.

I took out the Black Coffee (black) in mine

and put in the grey (Milady's Teal) instead.

I had a tabby cat who was also grey

and so ~

I dedicate this ornament to ~

Knee ~ Hi, my sorely missed tabby.

I used Milady's Teal by CC,

it is variegated like she was.

However, it doesn't show up like

I thought it should.

I also gave her a pink nose with a

small black line in it like hers.

Thanks for dropping by and looking at my stuff

I appreciate it so much and it sure does motivate

me to do more and get better at my craft.

God Bless ~
