Love the coffee WIP! Where'd you get the pattern?

Haha thanks! DH picked it out of a couple options that I gave him. I found on etsy. http://www.etsy.com/listing/102806397/i ... h_type=all" target="_blank" the colors were a bit off so I changed a few of them.

I've finished the gift for my husband, now I just need to figure out how to frame it. It's suppose to go on our coffee station, but I think it's going to need an 8x10 frame and mat, so I'm not sure how it will fit... First world problems.

annnd I've also just started on this. It's my second start with this pattern, I have an 9x13 in piece of 32 count black laguna, but needless to say it was SO hard to see. I switched to this 25 count black laguna. I've never stitched something with such a small count per inch! I'm doing 3 over two (I've also never used three strands before!) I'm loving it so far!

Sorry for the quality, cell phone at night, black fabric, yeah.

Here's what it will look like when it's done:

It's called Holiday Cats, by Mary Ellen Yanich. I really like the Halloween one, but not really any of the others.

Love the coffee cup! Great present for your DH.
The Halloween piece is going to be beautiful. Stitched on the black fabric it is going to be fantastic!
