Moggie Manor - Cross Stitch Pattern by The Blue Flower
Moggie Manor - Cross Stitch Pattern by The Blue Flower
Original design by Jeannine McGowan
The idea for this design began with memories of my cat Moggie. She was a very plush kitty with lots of character, and she absolutely loved to sit outside and watch the fish and birds. For the "manor" in her honor I've included a koi pond, a house flanked with catmint plants, and towering birch trees full of birds. There is a panel at the bottom ready for you to include your own cat's name (alphabet included), or you can use the centre text box for multiple names. The cats are charted in a variety of colors, to make it easy to personalize if you wish.
The model is stitched on 40 count "Cocoa Powder" linen from xJudesigns. (This is very close to DMC 950.)
