pic and cat

Wow Carole....you and Laverne must now be official HAED heads (with goo-goo eyes)!! A fantastic start on a lovely piece ....I will look forward to your updates on all your lovely pieces....what a variety you have on the go!

The chart name caught my attention - then I noticed you started the SAL - my first thought.....oooh goodie - more Laverne pics along with stitchy pics! She brings a smile to my face everytime.

You have made an excellent start. I admire your ability to rotate after 10-15 hours. I look forward to watching this stitch up.

so cute! and a great start

That's a nice design. Great start.

I liked squirrel's description of Laverne - what a ham, indeed! I love her but still can't persuade my DH to get a cat.

Love the goo goo eyes!! She's a hoot that cat!

Love the design as well, great start

great progress!

Wow, quick start on this one, despite the confetti! It looks really good. Love Laverne.. and now I know why Max was using my laptop!

Are they emailing???

I am unsure what I love more - your cat or your stitching
I fear your cat will win in time
But your stitching is also amazing =)

Spent about another 15 hrs (I think 10 hrs is just not enough time, but I'm going to pretend I have a 10 hr rotation anyway) and got a lot more done. Some confetti, but enough blocks or strings of colors that I felt like I made progress. Yes, Laverne tried to help by letting me know that this piece is hers. For those of you with felines, you will recognize what she is doing.

I mean she almost fell off the table as I moved the qsnaps with fabric back. She was determined to mark this piece no matter what.
Her sister Shirley was a good kitty and slept on the chair next to Mama.

I have a little more than a 1/4 of the first page done. I do like the coverage of the 1 over 1 on 25 ct.

You have made a lot of progress Yes I think 15 hours will help you to get a lot more done.

I love seeing this one again, you've made a lot of progress in just 15 hours.



Max does spend a lot of time on my computer desk when I'm checking the forum... he might be looking for pictures of Laverne and Shirley.

Nice progress on this!! Laverne always makes me smile, she really does have a way about her!! And Shirley is being quite the well behaved one now isn't she?

That's a lot of progress, Carole!

This is looking very nice all ready. I am such a slow stitcher that 15 hours would be nothing for me. I swear it takes me a month just to do one page. I can spend 30 minutes just looking at the chart saying hmm okay where should I start, what colour, do I want to work on confetti or blocks of colour etc. etc. I sure hope that I improve as time goes on.

Wow that is a whole lot of confetti!!!!!!!!!!

ME too!!! I hate being so slow. Nothing ever gets done.

I think getting a page done in a month is great progress. If there is a lot of confetti it takes longer, though I am actually more likely to make mistakes and have to large blocks of color because I don't pay as much attention to what I am doing. I have lots of time for stitching as I am retired and can stitch watching tv or listening to books. stitching speed is so individual. We have some who are amazingly fast. And I didn't do all that stitching in 15 hrs since this was my second update. Probably about 30 hrs total so far. I never have kept track before and it's been kind of fun to do.

This one is looking great Carole - glad it has Laverne's approval!
