It's been a whole year since I said goodbye to this little guy. I miss him so much. Monty has been trying really hard to fill those paws, but there will never be another Maxi. The cold and miserable weather here has been fueling my melancholy today and making me a little teary. Hope things are warmer and cheerier for you all today.

Those of you who have been reading my little blog for awhile may remember last year when I lost my little man, Maxi. It's been really tough without him and I have wanted for quite some time a painted piece of him. I've got a heap of photos (of course) but wanted something just that little bit more special. Enter a very talented lady that volunteers along with my Mum at Wolston House. She specialises in animal portraits and was more than happy to have a go at painting my little Maxi. And what a marvellous job she has done. It brought me to tears.
Thank you Roslyn, I just love it.
It's been a while since I joined in with my creative space. Time to get back in the groove I think.
This week apart from my usual chenilley goodness, I'm going back to one of my old favourites. Cross stitch. I had a photo turned into a counted cross stitch pattern over here and am just gathering my supplies. I bought some ecru aida cloth but I think now I want a steely grey instead. It looks all doom and gloom with all the greys, but this cross stitch is going to be something quite special that I know I will love :)
I love you more than words can say. xx
I don't know how much I will be around these parts for a while. I'll be back soon.
Max says,"Hi. I hope you're all enjoying your New Year!"
Like a walking cat magnet.
"The Forbidden" chenille that he's allowed to lie on.
