We don’t get a chance on the computer much. A furry sick Dad, work, laundry, appointments and Mom’s total inability to do the blog using her phone or tablet, NOTHING HAS BEEN SHARED with you my furrends!
Now I must tell you about the art Mommy has been doing…apparently embroidery is easy to carry around and pull out in Doctor’s offices and waiting at hospitals.
First here is the picture that lead to the art being thought about. Mom was trying that Photoshop Water Color filter that CK’s human does such a wonderful job using and she really liked how it turned out.
And then Mom turned the computer art into a sketch.
She thought it would make a really good embroidery.
First she traced it onto the material using carbon paper.
Then she started stitching
And more stitching
And more
And more
Mom just about stopped at the “line drawing”. All she had left to do was add the whiskers, but the Dad was back in the hospital, so she started to embellish
And today, she finished the circle! Mom says it is done, except for washing out the carbon and ironing and framing
I LOVE it! And I am going to share it on Athena’s Artsy Caturday! Click her icon to see all the other great art!
I love love love the watercolor and the embroidery! I’m sorry your dad is in and out of the hospital but I’m glad your mom had time to finish the piece. Healing purrz to your daddy.

OMC, Marv, that is just the best thing!!! Your mum is so talented. I hope that it gets framed and hung right where everyone visiting can see it.
As I am in care mode for my father, I totally understand how your mum must be a bit overwhelmed and really, blogging can wait. But it is delightful to see you up on the screen and I send lots of Love and healing vibes to your dad, for support of your mum, and hugs and whiskeries, to you and your fursibs!!!

Marv, I have missed you and the family so much. It is a joy to see you again. Tell your mom that my mom loves embroidery of that type. She isn’t a cross stitcher; she loves all the other stitches instead. She drew her parrot MacTavish of years ago on a tablecloth and embroidered that once. She still has it somewhere. Love to your entire family.
