Fantastic progress you are making on this one That is so cute Laverne helping you mark the chart awwwwwww!

Great progress! Kudos for sticking with it for 50 hours!! Luckily Laverne was there to help you.

Excellent photos of Laverne.. love how she's helping you mark the chart. And great progress on this one!

Great update! And oh Laverne... always in the way.

Wow, you have made SO MUCH progress!
It looks great, hooray!

Carole,

What a lovely design. It looks like a huge project, and I admire you for even starting it! And you are lucky to have stitching company!

Great to see a face appearing on the stitching and you both certainly made great progress with this fabulous one Madame Laverne is a star all on her own and you surely didn't want to move her did you? I mean she looks so comfortable.

Lovely to see kitten tree again and Laverne is so funny

Interesting design! Love the face in the gold frame.

Laverne is brilliant, she's so communicative isn't she!

Great progress, of course you couldn´t stop until Laverne saw the kitty

It looks great Carole!!

What a wonderful update =)

What wonderful stitching.

Great progress!! Cute kitty, too

I have finally finished page 1 and reluctantly am putting it up for a while. This is the piece that was due in my rotation when my Lowery arrived and I'm not sure if it is the adjusting to the Lowry which made the blue sky section so very hard to do or if it was the confetti itself, except I have worked on much more complicated confetti sections, but it took forever. I think the problem was more that I must have either messed up a stitch or messed up in highlighting a stitch or stitches made on my chart (which also had coffee spilled on it so it was an all round mess. (I know I have to figure out how best to do this with my iPad but one change at a time is all I can manage. Anyway, L & S are adjusting to this new monster in the house:

Laverne

Shirley

Preferred resting spots since Mom's language isn't that of a lady as she figures out how best to arrange things now
Laverne

Shirley

and finally Page 1 (in all its blurry photo glory)


Thanks for looking.

Aww, yes it's hard for all of us, humans and kitties alike, to adjust to a new Lowery apparently! Great update though. Hope you get your lowery position sorted (and if you do, let me know would you please? )

Well, it does look like the kitties are adapting well to your new 'monster'. I LOVE Shirley's picture on the cushion/bed(?) It always amazes me to see cats sleep that way--you'd think they'd smother.
Great update on O Kitten Tree--it does look great. So sorry you had so many complications with the confetti etc, and I do hope that the next page of it goes much easier for you!!

Thank you both. Karin, I'll be glad to let you know if and when I figure it out. Let me know when you do!

Karen, Shirley loves the cushion with an old sweater which is on the chair right next to me. That's her favorite sleep position and I don't know how she breathes, either.

Carole

I love your project! Those gems seem so lifelike

Your feline overlords are so adorable. The pic of Lavern rolled over at the door cracked me up. It's as if she's telling you that you should do belly rub therapy instead of being frustrated with the the Lowry lol
