This is looking fantastic. Don't you just hate it when you run out of thread and have to wait for more.

Thanks guys!

Meerkat, you're good; he's a boy kitty! ;)

360 stitches tonight...the first 260 went super fast, lots of black. The last 100 were all confetti and took forever. Blech!

Now one of the girls wants to know when it's her turn! Next, next, I promise!

Here's how I left him tonight...that's the final amount remaining. :dance:

Tonight's progress!

One of these nights, I'll take a pic with my real camera (as opposed to the cell phone camera). The pics aren't doing justice to the multiple colors in the piece!

The first cat is done!!

The original pic:

After taking this photo, I put it in my lingerie bag and washed it on the delicate cycle (my standard for stitching). The gridding lines came right out and the stitches tightened up a little so the coverage looks even better.

It's drying right now; I'll take another photo (with a "real", non-cell phone, camera) once it's dry. :dance:

One cat down; three to go!
