This and That no. 3

This and That No. 3 - in progress

I've added some beads to the crown piping and need to add more, I've been going through my stash of beads and am coming up with nothing as a pony bead is too big and I want to use something bigger than a 11/0 bead. The one bead I have that is the correct size is the wrong color, so maybe it doesn't need more beads on the piping??? Yet it tells me it wants to be encrusted!

This and That No. 3

In progress still - I went with the yellow and red toile instead of the ruby red. I did opt to deco the edge of the crown with red cording.

This and That No. 3 Comparison

Here is a side by side comparison of the crown for this piece I'm not sure which I like best the solid ruby or the yellow and brick red toile. Opinions please ;-)

This and That No.

She has a face, now to apply ribbon etc to the bonnet - who puts a bonnet on a cat?

Finally some color! No where near done yet though! Now for more stitching, cats need hair right? Some beads, cordings, attach the crown, buttons, ribbons and more.

This and That No. 3 in progress

It's stitched to a base, with quilt batting in between, of pink gingham fabric and its more of a rose color actually. The pom pom trim is sewn onto the bottom and it's now ready for embellishing. Buttons, beads, ribbons, glitter and maybe even a few suprises - been wanting to make some more paper beads.

This and That No. 2. In Progress. The piece is now ready for additional stitching and embellishments.

This and That No. 2

I started working on T&T altered embroidery no. 2 last night. I managed to get the gingham on backwards after getting all of the stitching to look the way I wanted to ;-(
