Hi everyone,
I finished this up yesterday with the edgings of quilting fabic. I have never had a little tabby like this, but I had to make it like a tabby. (The pattern showed a black kitty.) This one is for my nieces birthday.
Isn't she cute? "Those wild eyes like I will get you now!" LOL!

Here she is getting the yarn!

Oh, how cute! I love the playful kitty. I hadn't thought about embroidering a pillow case, but I remember now some vintage ones that my MIL and grandmother had. Thanks for sharing.
I remember the tea towels, (we called them kitchen towels back when???) I embroidered with kitties with the days of the week.
I have a state bird quilt I started for my mother years ago that was embroidery. I need to get it out and work on it.
