He is beautiful and so much wisdom in those eyes. The computer is a great location for both of these.

That is perfectly wonderful, Mags, and such a great counterpart to the kitty!

Oh this is amazing Mags! I love it. What a great job you have made of these two (cat as well), they really are stunning pieces.

Re: mags' SAL
Mags, I've just been looking at your gallery again. Were the last 2 projects kits or charts? I've never done animals before but your owl and Magesty II are so compelling. I'd love to give one of them a try (provided I ever get through my recent WIP). If you could point me in a direction as to where to look for them, I'd much appreciate it.

Re: mags' SAL
Thanks everyone
Carolyn, yes these were kits by Vervaco. I got mine from Sew and So

I am sure they will ship, but you could maybe find them over your side of the pond.
It would be no good sending you my chart as they do not give the colour numbers (just a description) and I think it would be quite important to have exactly the right colours.

Boy, you guys have really inspired me with all your work. I fink myself wanting to do every new SAL I see posted.

Re: mags' SAL
Carolyn, you didn't sound as if you were asking
I agree about kits - on the owl I only had about 6 inches left of one strand of one of the colours
although they do give a guarantee and you can send off for extra if you run out (but who wants to wait!). And, I hate the fact that the aida usually has a nasty crease - I always substitute another piece and use the kit fabric for cutting up for smaller projects.

Re: mags' SAL
Mags you are right about the kited fabric has such a nasty crease and you have to really work to get it out. they seem to have foled it an then steam flattened it. They need to be told to roll the fabric.
I wonder if anyone has ever tried to contact the companies about this.
