Black-Work turned Chocolate Brown

There is something about "Black-Work" that speaks to me. Those little "patch-work" like patterns remind me of days gone by. Instead of using black thread though, I used chocolate brown to match my sweeties office, and then added pale blue seed beads for ornamentation. I found this great frame at Michaels Craft Store, YaY!.

Defender of the Faith...or the Thread

It happens every single time....
I sit, get out my cross-stitch...
Make sure my tea is within my reach....
and then...
and then...
Pursie must sit right on top of my thread...
What is it with cats?
They're insane....
