C is for...

Cats, of course! I love all kinds of embroidery but I always seem to be drawn to ones with cats and kittens. Yes, they're kind of sweet, but cats are very playful so lend themselves to all sorts of situations. Playing with yarn, jumping rope, fishing in goldfish bowls—you get the picture. Here are some things from my collection:


Embroidered quilt block


Vintage stamped-for-embroidery tea towel


Redwork quilt block


Embroidered linen guest towel


Embroidered pillowcase


Another tea towel; made into a pillow I called "Let's Hear it for the Boy"


Wait a minute—we're not vintage!

I had to sneak in a picture of my girls. See why I love cats so much?
