Black Cat Sampler Finis

Black Cat Sampler by Brenda Gervais - With My Needle and Thread
28 count linen hand-dyed by myself
various over-dyed floss

I finished up Black Cat Sampler yesterday and even put it into pillow form! This is the only fall/Halloween piece I'm going to get done this year. :-( I got so caught up in my Quaker piece that I didn't even think to do anything else for most of October.

I have been making some progress on Beyond My Heart - I'm over half way pattern wise but I have the heavier stitching left to go. I'll most likely be done with this sometime next week.

That cat is so cute. He looks a real character, even if a little disgruntled. Will you name him?
