New pet and stitching

Somehow the pics got out of order lol but I guess that is ok...This is my new kitten Misty that has been keeping me away from posting and stitching as much as I would like to with all of her energy. Will have to try and post more often now that she is more used to the place and me. Today I finished off the 3rd block and started on the diamond shapes on the bottom row. May need to click on the pic to see them really well as the yellow isn't appearing as bright as I would like it to lol.

Update

No pictures this time but I have all of the Orange square at the end done except for the backstitching and have started on the border for the row beneath but it is going very slowly right now. I can't use my frame because the fabric is too short at the ends..should be enough there for framing tho just barely and if not maybe i can sew some fabric onto the edges that won't show up to anchor the framing a little better really not sure.

Weekend Progress

I think I spent more time watching movies this weekend then I did stitching, didn't help that my dog was very playful during the weekend..would hardly leave me or my stitching alone lol. I'm glad the purple square is done cept for the backstitching which I plan to start today. Also got the pink diamonds done, for some reason they looked offcenter the whole time I was stitching the lighter pink center. I think tho it is the color that does it because the green never felt that way lol.

New Update

This is my update on this project before participating on a weekend SAL on Facebook..I am hoping to finish at least all of the purple square if not start on the square on the far right. I am still really loving this project and working on it every chance I can get.

First Block Finished

This block went so fast and I have absolutely enjoyed stitching it. Have already receieved many compliments by people from my apartment complex. Will be starting the 2nd block a little bit later this evening. My silly dog Kaylee is a complete camera hound and had to get up there and lay down just before I snapped the picture lol.

I started this project the same night that I finished BoINK. It is the Patchwork Sampler SAL from Catia Dias at Catia Crafts. I am really enjoying stitching this other than the part that I already had to rip out and put back in because I was off by 1 square. Why does it seem like it takes 5 minutes to rip something out but another 30 minutes to put it back in lol.
