This little project is for the vet clinic that I work for. I would like to do a cute dog one to go with it but I just haven't found one that really jumps out at me.
This is going to be done on 14cnt aida normal 2 strand stitch.

what the finished project will look like


and my progress from last night

This is a lovely idea and these kits are so cute

thank you. I have to admit Margaret Sherry is has to be a favorite x-stitch artist, her animals are just so CUTE!

Great start on a very cute design!

He's lovely I have Pm'd you about a cute dog

Before I go any further with this project, I am wondering if I should use a different colour of aida? I have navy, yellow gingham, and off white.....

I agree about Margaret Sherry's designs, they are great and this one is a beauty - not seen it before.

As to the colour of fabric, I guess it depends on what you would feel comfortable with as well as what colour wall it would go on. If, as is often the case with clinics, the walls are white, you might like to stitch this on a coloured fabric. Maybe the navy would be too dark against the cats fur but a soft blue would look great I think.

Super cute kitty!!!!!!!!!

As for the color of the aida. I would look at the wall and see what will go well with where is is going to hang.

funny you should say that, our walls are actually a pale pale blue. I think (so I don't have to start over) that I will stitch in a light purple back round 1 strand half stitch to get Kitty to stand out from its white fabric.

What a great design and I like your idea of a half stitch background!

Me too. It will give you flexibility in choosing the exact right colour for your background.

I love the design - and it's so true!! I think it's going to look wonderful with your ideas and can't wait to see more of that little cuttie!!

Nice design and start .... I like your idea of doing a 1/2 stitch colored background. Looking forward to your next update!

MS designs are really cute! I also love her designs especially her cats!

Happy stitching!
