In case you haven’t figured it out by now, this is so AlleyCat! The canvas is by Maggie…frame by Jim & Lisa Krause and would be just purr~fect in my house. I was on a mission and that mission was to search out as many cats as I could at the show. The trouble was there were so many great canvases at market, how could I just select one of them?
This is another canvas by Maggie. Look at all the mischief that these two are getting into! My Felix was one who loved getting into the dresser drawers and making himself comfy.
Notice the kitty sitting in the window as the knitting goes on! Canvas by Maggie and the frame by Jim & Lisa Krause.
How did that kitty sneak into the basket with Toto? This canvas is darling and my framers have this awesome red frame that would be absolutely drop dead gorgeous with this! Canvas by Jelly Bean.
A Charley Harper Design of Cleopatra Cat. Too many canvases, not enough time!
Canvas by Kelly Clark which Kelly said she painted with me in mind… I am so flattered!
I already have this canvas which is by Ewe & Eye. Now that I see this wonderful frame, I am motivated to start it! I have a canvas enhancement class with Meredith Barnhill coming up on Saturday, so I just might need to bring this one.
Meet Bastet, the Cat Goddess and this is the one that is coming home with me! I will be stitching this and writing a stitch guide for Tapestry Fair. I am so honored.
Actually I saved the best for last! My Cat Goddess, AlleyCat.
Except that she is just a little too big for the box!
and until next time…keep on stitching
As far as I am concerned, when I saw Bastet my first thought was “Alley Cat’s previous life”. It is just her and I can’t wait to stitch this one but will wait until you finish the stitch guide so I get the whole package. And yes, the first cat’s statement is so AC; just look at her in the box which is small for her: does she care? Her face says “Nope”
Oh Palma, you know her all too well!
so good to see something from Kelly. No pictures of her new stuff except for this one and the trees.
I am sure that she will have her website updated soon!
Thanks for the cat canvas update. And I love Bastet. My friend lives in Cairo and I have several Bastets that live at my house. She brought me the most gorgeous plate for Christmas! And I have a Bastet from the tentmakers who do applique. And I love your fur babies.
Thank you! I will look forward to stitching that canvas! Your collection sounds wonderful.
The new cat canvases are charming, but none can compare to Miss Alley Cat!
AlleyCat says thank you!
Hi Vicky – It was great meeting you in person at market, and I am the one that is honored that you are going to stitch Bastet. You’re at the top of the list when they are painted this month. There IS a strange resemblence to Alley Cat, with the addition of a few jewels.
Thank you Peggi! and I am amazed at the way you paint on canvas, you are a true artist!
