The Reveal--The 14th Century Medieval Cat


Isn't she lovely? I adore her face and cat eyes and the gorgeous velvet beaded jacket she wears. The wonderful gold and silver medieval-inspired shapes of her gown are my second favorite things from this design. She was great fun to stitch and took only a bit over two weeks to do. I've discovered that Kandy's chosen interesting stitches for each animal and am looking forward to the next piece.

I think Kandace Merric's Household Pet Guardian Angels are going to be beautiful! There are other angels stitching pets for the ANG Auction set (you know who you are) and I'm about to start my next angel after I get a few things done on my gorgeous Squiggee piece.

You'll notice that I'm not doing any finishing right now with the Medieval Cat. I am going to test a finishing method for ease of assembly before I turn our French kitty into an ornament. After all, I promised easy finishing for all those who are stitching on this set with me.

Thanks. She was a lot of fun. There are things I'd do differently now, but just mostly to see how they'd look. I'm very happy with her.
