That's lovely Angel -- I'm very pleased I'll be the recipient of your next effort!
Talking of which ... I woke up this morning with rather a promising idea for an elongated cat design, so I skived off work (not quite so naughty as it sounds when you work from home

) and got out the squared paper and pencil. It didn't quite end up the way I'd first thought (I find designs do that, they sort of go their own way; has anyone else noticed this?) but I've now got a design with two long slender cats, one black and white and one ginger, with a top and bottom border of matching paw prints.
Now all I have to do is stitch it

but I think I'd better finish the Britty kitty first, and possibly do a bit of kingfisher, oh and that brooch....
It may be a while before I get to send it out to you, Alyson
Anyway, if it works 'in the flesh' I'll post the design in the design-sharing thread for all cat lovers out there.
