Loin d'être mon animal préféré, au contraire...je me rends compte qu'au final...je fais beaucoup de chats ici =D
Non pas que je les déteste, ils me font juste très peur...alors en tissu et en fils ça va, je ne crains absolument rien =)
Avant de vous montrer les 2 petits derniers, hier est arrivé un paquet au courrier...
Un paquet d'Angleterre qui sentait bon la Saint Valentin , de la part de June , qui juste 'comme ça' a décidé de me faire plaisir ... et tout ce que je peux dire c'est que c'était réussi =)
Parmi les 'goodies' comme on dit, un très joli petit coussin pique aiguilles que je ne vais pas oser du tout utiliser comme pique aiguilles !
Un énorme merci June
Maintenant les chats...
Au moment de noël je vous avais parlé du chat japonnais que je n'avais pas eu le temps de faire....
J'avais dit à Marie que le lapin de Pâques allait corriger le retard du Père noël , mais au final, je l'ai terminé avant et comme elle se fait opérer des dents de sagesse aujourd'hui, je vais lui donner en cadeau de convalescence, ce sera toujours mieux que des chocolats =D
Elle souhaitait l'avoir encadré alors le résultat est un peu plus bas en photo , d'abord le chat...
Le second chat lui, est parti à San Salvador ! Le gars de la poste à du sortir son atlas, promis ! sa machine trouvait pas ! (il faut dire qu'il était un peu neuneu aussi =D)
Bref...
Lors de l'échange d'été de l'an dernier sur le blog des fans de Margaret Sherry quelqu'un a encore manqué à l'appel !
Le colis était soit disant parti, 2 fois même, blablabla, encore quelqu'un qui s'est inscrit à un échange sans envoyer quoique ce soit en retour ! =(
Du fait , Eleana n'a rien reçu....et mieux vaut tard que jamais certaines d'entre nous ont mis leur costume de lutin et nous avons envoyé quelques babioles à Eleana =D
J'ai choisi de lui faire un petit coussin, avec cette fois ci , une esquisse de Margaret Sherry. (il fallait quelque chose qui aille vite à broder)
Normalement il n'y a que les points arrières, mais j'ai décidé de mettre un peu de couleur dans les fleurs ...
Cool la vie petit chat =)
Le colis n'a mis que 2 semaines pour arriver au El Salvador et Eleana a beaucoup aimé, moi ...ça me va =D
A côté de ça clair de lune a bien avancé, je peux même dire qu'il est presque fini ! et j'ai terminé un autre Margaret Sherry commencé il y a 2 ans (je fais mes fonds de tiroir, oui) et après les chats...on reviendra aux souris =D
Mais ce sera pour la prochaine fois ...

Cats are far from being my favourite animals...
I don't hate them no, I'm afraid of them, they are tigers for me =D
Surely it's because I had great troubles with one when I was a little girl...anyway...I realised that I often show cats here and surely it's because made of fabric and threads I don't need to be scared of them =D
2 more cats to show today, but before I want to say a big huge thank you to June , for the parcel full of goodies I received yesterday, and for this lovely, pretty and so beautiful pillow she made for me =)
A Valentine smell came out of the parcel with all these hearts , red and pink things... I love everything, thank you so much
Aren't these stitched little girls very cute ? =)
Xmas after Xmas, birthday present before the date...I'm blessed once again, thank you June =)
Then you surely saw my 2 cats
The first comes from my book with Japanese designs. I told you I had an 'order' for this cat I hadn't time to stitch for Xmas, and I said to Marie that Easter Bunny would correct Santa's delay...but finally I finished it earlier than I forecast and I will offer her tomorrow.
Today she is at hospital , being operated on her wisdom tooth, so this present will be better than chocolate and I hope it will help to forget the pain =)
Her Mum told me she will looooove it hehehe
She wanted it to be framed, so here it is
The second cat is a sketch by Margaret Sherry called 'Caught Catnapping'
I know that a sketch has no colour but I decided to put some in the flowers, to suit with the fabric and to be more ... colourful =D
In fact, during our Summer exchange (yes...Summer exchange last year) on the MS lovers blog, Eleana didn't receive anything =(
Her partner said she has sent a 2nd parcel as the first was apparently lost...but January arrived, poor Eleana didn't tell about this anymore and the second parcel also disappeared... ! if you see what I mean...
Nia asked for pixies and of course, I answered with a big yes =D
I needed something to be stitched quickly, as El Salvador is far away and as it takes weeks (we can even say months now ) to reach Brazil...I was afraid my parcel arrives at Autumn ...
15 days !! it only took 15 days =D
A real good surprise for Eleana, as it is written on the ribbon I chose
The fabric was a gift from Rita for the very same Summer exchange, I found it perfect for this pillow =)
Besides those cats, Clair de Lune...I can say that it is almost finished =)
Less than the second half of the moon to stitch and the backstitch to do...
I also finished another UFO ! (this one was 2 years old only)
Margaret Sherry again...but after cats...mice =D
Story of this design and pictures next time...

Good for you for stitching those darling cat pieces even though you are afraid of cats (I am afraid of big dogs, but I LOVE cats!!). They are both so pretty. I'm sure your eyes lit up when you opened June's gift--she is such a sweetheart (just like you!!).
RépondreSupprimerHope you have a wonderful weekend (with no cats crossing your path!)...
thank you very much Carol
SupprimerHo yes, my eyes lit up when I opened June's parcel =)
I bought a little basket this weekend and now I put what I receive in it so that everybody can see it here =)
a bit like your monthly bowls but not with what I made =D hehehehe
when I was very young, there was a cat under my parents car and I didn't see him ! I walked on his tail =( He was so hungry that he caught my little thin leg with his paws and his claws gripped me so strongly that I can remember the pain today, and the blood...!
I'm very afraid of claws now =)
I would like to have a cat without claws =)

Hi my dear friend
RépondreSupprimerI love the little tigers :)
and your embroideries are really very beautiful.
I'll tell you a funny thing:
My boss is terrified of animals, especially cats
So my phone has a ringtone that imitates the cry of a cat and he
always scare
I'm terrible :)
hahahahaha, you make me laugh sweetie =)
Supprimerindeed , you're terrible =D
But it's your boss, not a friend, so great idea in fact =D
Thank you for your kind words on my 2 little tigers =)
