I was originally going to do the cats:

But have now decided to do Charlie Falling Star instead!

I'm a sucker for anything with cats in it. I hope you have fun stitching your kitties.

I love the Dimensions Barnyard cats, alas it is on black aida and I cant see to sew on dark colours anymore. Tried all the tricks, purchased an uplight but no go. :cry:

Oh, those kitties are so cute! They're definitely on my wishlist - I have really good eye sight (at 20, I should hope so XD) so the black should be no problem.

That is so adorable. Can't wait to see your first pics of your progress. And remember that all stitching is one stitch at a time. Larger projects just have more stitches but the process is the same. And yes, each kitty is like a smaller project, so you will have a lot of "finishes".

They are gorgeous and what a lot of enjoyment you are going to get from stitching each one.

Be sure to post progress so we can cheer you along.

Only made a small start but hey, a start's a start, right? Going to work on this some more and will post again in about a week with hopefully more progress! This part is the water, I'm trying to get the water over and done with before moving onto the cats. It's be fun seeing the cat shapes pop up as I get more water in! You can already see a cat's ear and head.
