Saturday Photo Hunt #29: TINY


TINY!


The Saturday Photo Scavenger Hunt theme for this week is TINY ...

As I thought, efurryone in the cat blogosphere seems to be postin' a "baby" photo for the theme this week ... I have chosen this photo of Feline American Sparky Fuzzypants ...


In addition, I have this terrific item that illustrates the "tiny" theme!
A week ago, Mom's cousin, Michele (Perla and Gus's momma an' the sister of Zoey and the Furballs' momma), sent us a package. Inside the package was a present that Cousin Michele had been workin' on for over a year!



Mom's cousin made us a cross-stitch of five kitties! If you look furry carefully, you can see TINY "x"s made with colored string called "floss". Mom said that makin' a cross-stitch tapestry is furry difficult, an' that you have to have excellent eyesight and tons of patience.

What's especially interestin' is that the back side of the cross stitch looks almost as neat an' perfect as the front. Mom says that lookin' at the back of the cross-stitch shows that Cousin Michele is a careful and skilled artist. Efurry TINY stitch has been meticulously executed.

Since Mom likes the cross-stitch so much (Mom doesn't have the skills to do such fine work with such TINY stitches), she put it in a frame and hung it on the wall so that efurryone who visits us can see what marvelous work Cousin Michele does.

Thank you for the beautiful kitty cross-stitch, Cousin Michele. It's beautiful and we LOVE it! Wow! Those stitches are tiny, tiny, tiny!
