I've made a start!

Yes, albeit small, I've started on The Rain Fell. I didn't stitch for long last night but managed to get the scrolling done on the bottom of the design. The fabric I'm using is the recommended Americana Blend, but mine is 32ct instead of 30ct which was used in the chart model.

The Rain Fell - 22 June 2009

Since there's not much to show on my WIP, I thought I would show you a couple of photos I took of my furbabies, Sophie and Charlotte. I just love them both to bits!

Sophie - 16 May 2009

Charlotte - 23 May 2009

I was too tired to stitch tonight, but hopefully I'll get some more done during the rest of the week. Keep stitching!

  1. Hi Jane! I am so glad you visited my blog. I love this pattern by LHN (of course, I love all her patterns). It's on my wish list to stitch in the future.

    Your cats are so beautiful. Cats are just the best pets - a girl's best friend! I have one cat, Smokie, and she is just so sweet and loving.

  2. Your cats are lovely. They both have such beautiful eyes.

    I ordered the fabric for The Rain Fell and hope to stitch it this year. It is a lovely piece.

    I read your blog regularly but haven't commented before. I enjoy your blog very much. It is my favorite XS blog.
