Autumn Poodle

Hi friends! As soon as I received my October issue of JustCrossStitch and I saw Autumn Cat, I KNEW I would stitch it and I wanted it to be an Autumn Poodle!
🐩 I immediately begged Madeleine to draw me a poodle pattern. She kindly did❣️ I stitched up the pattern as is, but added the button for the tail and the changed face to the one that Madeleine made. I admit that it did not turn out exactly perfect.🤷‍♀️
I used 32ct, the pattern calls for 27ct. I had the PERFECT fabric on hand. Black Chocolate. I like it better than called for black with the autumn motifs. I know I did not clip my corners enough. I hope to do better next time. Oh yes! There will be more poodles! 💗 I am seeing all the seasons! Fun, fun, fun! I already picked out the pattern I am using for the Christmas Poodle!🤭


And how about a pattern giveaway? The perfect pattern, a DOG pattern supplied by our friend Robin
If you would like this pattern by Hinzeit with the charm included, please be a sidebar follower of mine, and leave a comment on this post stating that you would like this pattern. I will draw a name on Monday, September 9th.

My stepdad Jim continues to do pretty well with his chemo and radiation treatments for his Small Cell Lung cancer. Thank you for praying for him! It is much appreciated!

Seek the Lord and His strength; Seek His face evermore!  Remember His marvelous works which He has done, His wonders, and the judgments of His mouth
Psalm 105:4-5

Have a great day my friends! I am so glad you stopped by today! I thanked God for you today!

Stitching and praying,
Vickie

Congrats on the great finish Vickie. I think you and Madeline did a great job and it looks just like a poodle. I would love to be entered in your giveaway. We have a dog that I don't think is going to be around to much longer.

Such a tease, I thought you had actually stitched the cat! But of course your joint effort with Madeleine turned out beautifully! And yay that you'll be stitching the other seasons too.
Glad to hear Jim is doing pretty well, continued prayers.

I'm so impressed that you and Madeleine changed the kitty into a poodle so well! It is darling, Vickie--and I know more poodles will be on their way :) So happy to hear that your stepdad is doing well. Good luck to those who enter your giveaway (I'm a cat person myself, so I'll pass ;-)

Barb said...

So glad to hear Jim is doing well! He remains in my prayers. I love that adorable poodle you stitched!!
