Another 3 weeks have sped by and I am thrilled to bits because, I have a happy dance to share.
There’s the last cat, peeking over the top of a bag far left
.
That mouse is still there, in hiding.
And here are the cats you’ll remember from the far right.
Overall view
And . . . as if a finish wasn’t enough . . . I actually had time to finish the finish – yay! So a very energetic happy dance!
Please join me in some blog hopping to see what other members have been up to. I believe I’m not alone in happy dancing this week.

I already know what project I’ll be starting next but I’ll keep it a secret until next time! So, see you all again on 15th December!
Well done Claire. It looks superb as a cushion. Have you got your next project lined up?
yes, I already have supplies ready for the next project^^
A well deserved happy dance – I hope you flung yourself about with abandon.
well actually I did a floss rather than a fling ^^
Really fun, and I think you should be doing fandangos around the place!
it’s been a while since I did the fandango ^^ Can’t even remember the steps lol
OH WOW! I feel your joy. The cushion is marvelous. I have enjoyed watching the progress of this SAL very much inded. I still fear for the mouse. Looking forward to seeing what’s next.
next project promises to be colourful & fun ^^
Wonderful! It looks fabulous as a cushion, well deserved happy dance time 🙂
thank you Margaret ^^
Wow Claire! Good for you for finishing the finish too!!
thank you Mary Margaret ^^
Oh wow – you made a pillow out of it…love, love, love! Dancing along with you! Congrats on the finish, finish 🙂
thanks you ^^ it feels so great to have a finished finish (doesn’t happen often).
Fantastic cross stitch and a wonderful finished cushion. I love how you’ve matched the fabric to one of the bags. Very clever choice!
well I thought there were enough browns in the design and it needed a bit of teal to liven things up a little
Fabulous Claire, and the pillow done as well!!! Looking forward to your next project!
thanks Kathy. Can never have too many cushion covers, in my opinion.
Whoop, whoop well done Claire, it’s a beauty and I’m so impressed with your cushion, just gorgeous! Looking forward to seeing your next project. Jenny xx
thanks Jenny. New project is going to be colourful and lots of fun ^^
Happy Dancing Claire! Finished!I had not seen the little mouse. Happy Stitching!
Carmela
thank you Carmele. Yes, that mouse has been there over a year, and he’s still safe!
Oh my goodness! As if the finished cross-stitch was not darling enough… Your pillow is absolutely fabulous! What a great finish. Congratulations!!!
thanks Renee. I knew if I didn’t get straight on and making the cushion cover, I probably never would.
Congratulations!! On both finishes! Such a fun and happy pillow.
thanks Connie ^^
Just love it as a cushion. This is such a fun piece to look at! Congratulations on your finish.
thank you Deborah ^^ Cushion is on my rocking chair, so I get to admire it (when I’m not rocking lol)
Wow, it looks brilliant. Congrats on the happy dance 🙂
I’m so impressed that it’s finished off too. It looks fab as a cushion.
Congratulations on your great finish. The pillow is wonderful.
Congratulations on finishing the Bag Ladies. The pillow is a perfect finish. Looks really nice.
Done and dusted! What a beautiful cushion. I wonder what you will choose to work on next.
Woo hooooo!
Congratulations on a happy dance Claire – cannot wait to see what comes next. x
My favorite project and now it’s a finish! I loved watching your progress.
Love it! I think you should dance through the holidays. Your Bag Ladies pillow looks awesome.
Wow!!!! A finish and a FINISH!!! Congratulations! I love those cats so much. Well done, and can’t wait to see what you have up your sleeve for next time!
Grattis! They are all so cute, the cats!
Look what I missed out on! This is fabulous, two finishes in one! I bet you’re still walking about with a light step if not actually dancing anymore. 😉
lol, cushion has been sitting on my rocking chair ever since and is just what I need to support my back ^^
