Found what looks like is going to be a very cute monthly series, just starting in this Etsy shop. I probably won't stitch every month in this one, but I really liked the January kitty, so here she is. I stitched it as charted with the recommended DMC. I didn't have the blue glass treasures or the blue beads called for, so I just used a couple of buttons from my stash and Mill Hill beads #2009.
The February kitty is also available. Am I the only stitcher on the planet who doesn't stitch Valentine's Day? I think there are a few reasons. I'm not really a "heart" person. I don't have any in my decor and I don't think I've ever stitched just a heart. I'm also not a fan of pink and red together. And finally, my birthday is not long before Valentine's Day and I've always been more interested in that! So I'm skipping February kitty and we'll see what March looks like. If it's shamrocks and rainbows, I'll probably skip that one too. Who knows, I may only end up stitching the fall and winter kitties... which I'm sure wouldn't surprise y'all!
Happy Stitching!
