Romantic Floral Kitties

phaskins — Thu, 26 Jan 2012 03:13:51 +0000

I was feeling pink and flowery and romantic the other day and created a couple of kitties to reflect those feelings. That and the spring type weather we’ve been having in Dallas made me reach deep into the fabric stash and utilize a lovely piece of linen-ish embroidered fabric to draw a couple of cute cats. Now available for the gifting right here. Valentine’s Day is just around the corner. Enjoy.

Caught In The Act

Trying to feed the birds around here is nearly impossible, too many squirrels think the sunflower seeds are for them. Like this guy who doesn’t think I’m on to him. Ha.

Custom Critters

I love custom orders. Usually I make a crocheted critter similar to the customer’s pet. In fact, I’m in progress of creating a black & brown long hair dachshund for a customer to give his wife for Valentine’s Day. Ah. So sweet. But these kitties were made for an art director to use in a pharmaceutical ad. Can’t wait to see them in print.

Jessica

Here’s a couple of shots of Jessica, the very fluffy former stray that rules the house these days. Yesterday was sunny and she wanted to be on the other side of the window. Too bad, Jessica, you’re grounded for hopefully a very long life.

New Catnip Snakes

Hand drawn, machine sewn and hand stuffed with lots of catnip and poly-fill. Waiting for you in my Etsy shop. Click on photo to be taken to meet and buy the snakes. Your cat(s) will love you for it.

Last Chance Market

Looking at the calendar, I see that Christmas is a few weeks away and Dallas, lucky you, there’s one more White Rock Local Marke t this weekend. And it’s a big one, lots of vendors of arts & crafts & food. There’s a couple of bands playing. The hours are extended, we’ll be there from 9am until 3pm to help cross those names off that list of presents to buy.

If you live in Dallas, or are lucky enough to be here this Saturday, December 10, come by the White Rock Local Market and see what I haul out of my studio and bring along. I’ve been working on more catnip snakes, hand drawn on fabric and stuffed with fluff and catnip. Cats love them. Some dogs do too.

A fun time will be had by all. Come see us and shop local. Talk to the folks who make this stuff or grow it. Try that at Walmarts.
