Cats cats ...cats!!!

It is no secret that I LOVE cats!

Here is a little collage of my babies...The first column is Froy (7).

The middle is Lucky (9) and the last column is Trix (9).

The middle row shows them being alittle younger.

And the last row shows crazy big faces.

Here is baby Froy....he still uses that root as a scratching post. 

This pic shows Goldie (who has 6 toes on each paw), Lucky is the middle kitten and the bottom kitten is Trix.  We had too many cats then, so we gave goldie to the store.  People seem to like cats with extra toes.  All are fixed and 3 is my limit.  (mainly because they get mad at each other)

I love creating designs with cats too!

I can't help drawing more cats...but I am not very good at drawing dogs....I gotta try harder. 

I have lots of cat related projects on etsy.

This pattern above is a BIG pattern...all 12 designs are in one.

Each design represents a month of the year. 

 There is a snowman, hearts, shamrocks, bunny, catnip, flowers, flags, watermelon, schoolhouse, witch, turkey, and santa with presents. Each Finished stitchery square measures: 3 5/8" x 5 3/4"

Quilt measures: 19 3/4" x 33 1/4".

Here is the world's cutest cat (in my eyes) ...Froy!

He sometimes poses for me and then other times a take 50 pics and not one turns out.

He is a stinker!

I wanted to show you how I changed up my pic in adobe illustrator.

I did an image trace and changed the colors alot....crazy purples here.

It reminds me of paint by numbers...but very wild. 

It just shows you how colors can change the whole look!

These are banana split colors. 

It's like Jackson Pollack meets impressionism.

I love it!

I could do tons of changes...but I just focused on these colors for now.

Now this is CRAZY!

I feel like I am in the swinging sixties!

Austin Powers eat your heart out.

I love the "paint by number" fabric...that was one of my favorite things to do as a child....I bet you liked it too!

This fabric has the word "love" embroidered on it. 

More paint by number but in the hexie!

My favorite shape of hers in the hexie!

Party on....skeleton!

There are french knots on his party hat. 

Jack...the pumpkin king!...he has a few beads on him...I need to watch this movie again soon! 

Look at his sly face!

He has French knot highlights in his eyes. 

Another Jack Skeleton...

Halloween earrings!!

I need to make some clips on earrings for myself...my ears always grow back...I give up on pierced earrings.  I guess my body says No!

Selina also made lots of Petit fours!

They are great tea cakes.

She had a blast and brought them to a party.
