Today is Carly's Ellipsis Monday Photo Shoot (actually #43) with the theme of "Seeing Stars." I found that I have two items hanging on my utility room walls that fit the bill. First is the picture of a cat in front of the window at night, with stars dotting the sky behind him.
The second picture is a lone star quilt pattern that I did in counted cross-stitch a number of years ago, with a stuffed cat off to the side of it. (Do you see a cat theme here? LOL!) This is one of my favorite cross-stitched items.
Carly wants to know for extra credit what it was like to get these shots. Were there any complicating factors? I didn't have any difficulties at all, nor did I need special settings using my Nikon Coolpix. It was just point and shoot, although I did some cropping of the picture of the cross-stitch star in Paint Shop Pro 9.
Have some fun and go to Carly's URL (linked in the first sentence) to see how to play this game!

Love these stars. Especially the top one!
Hi Suzanne :)
You do such lovely cross stitch work! I am always impressed when I see it, and this one is really lovely. :) Nicely done.

Pretty stars! :-)
Yep, this fits the theme very well. I enjoy seeing pictures of somebody's own artwork. I'm not good at crafts at all so I have a lot of admiration for those that can.

Great star shots and great stitch work too! :-)
I like the cross-stitch star, it must have taken a lot of time to complete it.It really is so lovely.
What a lovely cross stitch star!
