I haven’t even gotten to market yet and already I have fallen in love with all of these new canvases that I would love, love, love to stitch! And like I said, I’m in trouble, BIG trouble! I know that there will be soooooooooooooo many more temptations that lay ahead of me. Canvases, books, magnets, bags and so much more.
These are some of the new designs that Unique New Zealand is showing at market, you know the artists of the Keep Calm Canvases. They have brought to life the artwork of Vicky Mount and the first one is entitled “Waiting for Dinner.” It looks like my two when they are waiting for their rotisserie chicken treat from Costco!
This is “Emily’s Dinner.” Reminds me of one of my first cats that would go fishing in my aquarium!
These 3 canvas are all 10″ x 10″ and are painted on 13 mesh. For all of you out there that say I will only stitch on 18…there is nothing wrong with stitching on 13 and you are missing out on a lot of great canvases!
Okay this one is “Feed Me” and I wondering did she use AlleyCat to model for this canvas?
Well not quite! and yes I know that AlleyCat could stand to lose a little…but when you rescue a street cat and they know what hunger is, their appetite’s are never sated. So if she gets a little hungry, she eats a bit as they are still thinking they don’t know when they will have their next meal. So if she was the only cat, I could limit the dry…but you know Sylvester lives here too!
So no, she didn’t model for this canvas…but rumor has it that she has been immortalized on one of the new cat canvases by Labors of Love!
Today is a serious work day, stitch guides for market, magazine work, doodle stitching with some new threads that are being introduced at market and so much more.
and then… and then… and then…
I will retwatch Season 4 as I ready for tonight.
and until next time…keep on stitching
Love the cat canvases! Right now, Sienna is sitting just like AlleyCat, waiting for me to spoon more breakfast into her bowl. I have to put a spoonful in every 20 minutes or so because she’ll gorge and then throw up…yech…I don’t need clean-up duty on a Sunday morning. I re-watched the last two DA episodes last night so I could be reminded of what was going on. There’s always something going on at DA, isn’t there? Enjoy the premiere tonight, I hope to finish knitting socks for my daughter and then resume stitching.
LOL! and happy knitting…
I love these canvases! What will it take to persuade you to write stitch guides for all three (and any others they may have, as we have been owned and loved by all sorts of cats, not just tuxedo and black ones)?
could be a possibility!
I understand about the rescue cats. We lost ours this past May – Just short of his 14th b-day. Whenever we left town and DD1 came in to feed him and the newbie, they would head straight for the food bowl knowing it was safe to eat because it would be refilled and they would not run out.
Max (the newbie) can be seen under the tree – http://needleworkerssamplings.blogspot.com/
your cats are gorgeous!
