Frederick came to me in the spring of 2007 as a RAK (random act of kindness) from Kim. I started the project promptly but for some reason I stopped and poor kitty became an UFO (unfinished object). Well, this year Raymond (a member of my yahoo group) started to stitch exactly same piece. I've got motivated and put my needles to work. I am a much slower stitcher than Raymond but I managed to finish and I am so, so proud of it. Frederick is the bigest piece I have ever finished (so far) and it took me well over 130 hours to stitch.
That's really beautiful... congratulations on the finish, I wish I had the patience to do something that complicated.

How big is Frederick? Congrats on finishing him. He looks great!
ReplyDeleteHe adorable and looks like the cat I inherited when my Mom passed. (Carol the Cat is on my blog). Fantastic finish. By the way, Carol took a liking to my boyfriend (hates me except for food)and sticks to him like she did to Mom. My blog is dottiesxstitches.blogspot.com.
