Cutie

Hi friends! I am having a rough week, due to pain. I thought I would show you the little magnet I made up for my mom though.
My mom has a new kitten. They are not sure if it is a boy or girl yet. Pretty sure it's a girl. ;) So far the kitten is named "Cutie". We have been over to see it once. I realized after I gave this to her, that I did not make enough white under the chin. No matter. My mom loves it. That's the great thing about making up things for my mom. She loves it all! =)
Cutie is stitched one over one on a mystery sage green 27 count linen. I left the eyes unstitched so the green showed for the color. She has light green eyes, this color. She has the most wonderful white whiskers. :) I used a sweet gingham ribbon I had saved from June, to frame the magnet with. This is a freebie you can find right here. I changed a few things on my kitty.

I am beginning a new stitch. The garden needs weeding. I just can't do it now. I will be stitching today. And reading. Need to recover.

I hope you have an excellent day my friends. Some of you are not doing so well. I am praying for YOU. Actually I prayed for all of you my friends today.

Stitching and praying,
Vickie

Sweet little kitty magnet! I wondered when I first saw it--uh-oh, a CAT??!! I am sorry to hear that you are in lots of pain again. Weather related maybe? We are having rain showers for the next three days, and it looks like they are going up your way afterwards! I will say a prayer for relief for you! Hugs!

Aww... such a perfect gift for your mom, Vickie! I love black cats and I'm sure the white whiskers on Cutie are especially adorable.

Sorry to hear your pain level is up again. After a good week last week, my plantar fasciitis is bad again--very frustrating. I don't know how you've dealt with it all these years--I can hardly stand it and it's been only 2 months! Hang in there and I hope you feel better very soon...
