My 1st machine cross stitch project - Cat Cosmetic Bag.
Made this for my young niece, who loves cats. This design stitches out beautifully. There was one "x" missing from the file, so I added it by hand after the rest of the design finished (that's when I noticed the small blank space). I used spray adhesive to sandwich black cut-away stablizer to my black fabric before stitching. I hooped tear-away and then layed my fabric on top. Made the same sandwich for the back, but used a faux suede to add some texture, and used a lightweight lining material inside. This was not an ITH project, so assembly was done with regular sewing machine.
I hope she likes it, and thanks for looking!!
Hugs, Lidia
