Micro-Mini Happy Dance
28 January 2008

It has been some months since I last worked on “Four Seasons Cats” so when it came up in my rotation last week I knew it was time to finally tackle the Winter Cat border.

I like this pattern, really I do, but for some reason it always gets pushed to the bottom of my rotation. I suspect the problem is that although each square is not very big the stitching is extremely dense and as a result, I find it easy to procrastinate about it. ;)

However, with the completion of the Winter Cat border I feel like I have had a micro-mini happy dance because I now have the borders for all four seasons complete.

The winter border stitched up in a very quick five hours and though I should work another five hours on the piece to finish my ten hour rotation on it, I probably won’t because my goal for this round was merely to finish the border… and besides, I am ready to move on to “Spring Queen!”

    How exciting to see this WIP back out again. Congrats on finishing the border. Sometimes stitching until you finish a goal is better for morale rather than sticking to a time limit anyway.

    Looking great! I think you stitched this up pretty quick for it being so dense.
    Look forward to seeing more.
