I was showing you the custom canvas that Patti Mann painted for me, but I wasn’t able to get the picture to load. This is my Mooch and he is quite the character with really big eyes!

I have always loved Patti Mann canvases, but had no idea that she was this amazing as an artists! Wow, I was definitely blown away. It’s really fabulous, especially when you look at the details in the pot that she captured.

I haven’t been stitching much these last few weeks on this and I had a birthday present to finish stitching and a few other things to take care of.

Along with our collection of canvases, of course is a collection of bags! A dear friend made this for me after she saw the sample and fabric in a shop in Seattle I believe. I absolutely love, love, love the bag and it is a very special gift that means a lot to me. Well Miss Meow jumped in the bag and it looks like that Mooch is whispering to her “move over, it’s my turn!” and I believe she obliged!
