I also like little houses too. And cats. And monochrome. And so on ....<br />I don't like realistic florals and cute teddies.<br />My blogging association with Americans is building my love for hallowe'en stitching too!Jo who can't think of a clever nicknamehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02663450738390351663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7951437392335459355.post-44640809103268037522011-12-29T12:12:16.481-05:002011-12-29T12:12:16.481-05:00I tend to stray towards things for little girls be...I tend to stray towards things for little girls bedrooms.

I can say that my overriding interest has always been stitching seasonal items. When I first started stitching, everything I stitched had a country influence; I stitched a lot of houses, quilt lines, cows, pigs, sheep, etc. I got heartily sick of stitching country so I delved into stitching anything art nouveau or art deco next. I loved the fluidity and graceful sinous lines or sharp angles depending on what I was working on. Now, I still stitch seasonals but I have branched into stitching quakers and inspirational patterns. The patterns I have bought recently seem to have also melded my past interests, i.e. I have AAN seasonals and the Quilty Neighborhood series from Annie Beez Folk Art as WIPs.<br /><br />Karen in Maryland<br />kmkelch@comcast.netMother of Mayhemhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09120239712521982484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7951437392335459355.post-54734617455887903952011-12-28T18:02:24.525-05:002011-12-28T18:02:24.525-05:00Over the last two years I have probably stitched o...Over the last two years I have probably stitched over 100 reindeers.

I like patterns that don't call for a lot of thread changes. For myself I like to stitch cats, because well, I am a crazy cat lady afterall. :) I'm working on a Brittercup Designs cat right now for a client of mine. She has a 24 year old cat named Ham, and I noticed that he's getting a bit thinner/more tired. I'm starting to think his time might be running out, which can be expected for a 24 year old cat! I changed the colour of the Britty Kitty from black to orange to match him. He's a funny old guy and I think she'll really like this.<br /><br />I really like all your santas. I've only done one, but next year will be two!
