That is so fantastic!! I love the juxtaposition of traditional, Granny-style crafts and cult internet phenomena! It looks extremely well made, and I love the embroidery colors and the quilted border. Too perfect. :)

3 coyotemom 05.19.08 at 5:42 pm

I think I’ll try this too!

Your link to the Etsy store just links to the photo:

8 Paunchie 05.19.08 at 7:01 pm

I love that! I totally LOLed. Why yes, this is my kitteh pillow, and I modeled for the picture, too.

9 sunnymum 05.19.08 at 7:03 pm

That cat almost looks like it needs to put its dentures in. :o I love its plush, velvety white hair. And the bag is simply adorable, great job!

10 chanpon 05.19.08 at 7:05 pm

Pssht! Take that, opposable thumbs! Who said you need them for embroidery?

11 Aesthetica 05.19.08 at 7:06 pm

oh crunk, it sold out at etsy. i wonder if she’ll be selling anymore? i want one.

12 SSSsss 05.19.08 at 7:08 pm

Nah… kitteh is just about to speak, that’s all….

13 Emily S 05.19.08 at 7:10 pm

Thanks for the Caturday love everyone! I had a blast making this and I definitely plan to make more. Keep your eyes on my etsy site every so often and you might see one pop back up! And by the way, my cat Polly actually DOES have thumbs!! – Polly(dactyl)

14 lurkertype 05.19.08 at 7:12 pm

See, Emily’s just selling these for Polly, who made ‘em with her own furry thumbs.

Explains the grumpy look from kitteh — knows the person is going to get all the credit.

15 Paunchie 05.19.08 at 7:15 pm

YOU GUYS WINSTON IS ON YAHOO!

heeeee!

16 Seven Paws 05.19.08 at 7:19 pm

Great job, Emily – and so nice to see that it is Kitteh Approved.

17 berthaservant 05.19.08 at 7:39 pm

Even I, a man who does not like to shop and has no need for a “tote,” find this object CUTE. Congrats on selling out, Emily!

18 Michelle 05.19.08 at 7:46 pm

Cutest bag ever. :D

19 Ermine_Violin 05.19.08 at 7:53 pm

OMG! I would so buy one and live through the wrath of the one who speaks mean to me about spending money on purses…..

Where is Winston on Yahoo? WHERE?

20 Pussytoes 05.19.08 at 7:53 pm

23 Katrina 05.19.08 at 8:40 pm

From one quilter/embroiderer to another- excellent designing, work and presentation.

Is there a CO salute? Well, I give you a laurel, and hearty handshake!

24 Debbie in Iowa 05.19.08 at 9:01 pm

I’d like to check out the Etsy store, but the link is not correct and searching Etsy has so far not been successful.

25 Debbie in Iowa 05.19.08 at 9:03 pm

Never mind, I found it.

26 oakling 05.19.08 at 9:08 pm

PS — Oakling — let’s see you needlepoint THAT.

;)

29 yankeebird 05.19.08 at 9:59 pm

All, Winnie has been on Yahoo’s “Pulse” link for a couple of days now. It seems to flicker between videos (Winston is the “Garbage Disposal Cat”) and celebrity news and a few others. Refresh your page until you see the vids, and you’ll see Winnie. I mentioned it back on one of the creepy cat entries yesterday, but I guess nobody saw that.

31 Marianne 05.19.08 at 11:04 pm

o gracious! it’s perfect!!

32 Katrina 05.19.08 at 11:06 pm

YAY!!!

and

Winston! Winnie the piggy!

YAY to Winnie!!!
Has anybody seen “Blazing Saddles”? That is where ‘a laurel, and hearty handshake’ comes from. It is a congratulatory thing.

33 Hooligan 05.19.08 at 11:14 pm

I need to start making a Caturday tote right now!

34 Gail 05.19.08 at 11:28 pm

@Katrina: Nobody loves a Blazing Saddles reference more than me…..but can’t really finish *that* line here! Let me just say that the Sheriff is near!

35 Gail 05.19.08 at 11:29 pm

Oh and I forgot, that really is a LOVELY job of embroidery!!! I have been itching to try that one myself (and I haven’t embroidered since I was a wee babe!)

36 Mike 05.20.08 at 12:01 am

Wow! I cannot BELIEVE what a good knitter that cat is! Can she teach me??

37 berthaservant 05.20.08 at 12:08 am

Mongo just pawn in game of life.

38 Janelle Pivarski 05.20.08 at 1:06 am

I LOVEE IT!! I need one now! :)

Now if only there were some Caturday ‘day of the week’ undies too!!

39 Dogbreath 05.20.08 at 3:06 am

lol @ berthaservant

40 Rachel Sweeden 05.20.08 at 3:44 am

I agree the cat is a good knitter. I like the pillow too.

41 Hon Glad 05.20.08 at 6:01 am

Caturday of the Latterday Saints.

42 Ninjin 05.20.08 at 8:15 am

Aw, I love the self-important expression on the kitty’s face. He’s all:
“I tested this pillow, and I liked it.”

43 Caroline 05.20.08 at 8:28 am

How did you miss it? NOT
“Perfect for hitting the Farmer’s Market on a Caturday” OMG, but PURRfect for hitting….

44 ThreeCatNight 05.20.08 at 1:54 pm

“Yes, I did it all with my own little paws! But I happen to think that I’m MUCH cuter in person.”

45 millie 05.21.08 at 12:44 am

What a flashback! When I was 4 years old (I’m 53), this was one of the designs my mother embroidered on a quilt for my new baby brother!

46 Subhangi 05.21.08 at 5:04 am

Very sweet! I love the linen background.

47 KittyMom 05.21.08 at 1:21 pm

Ooooooooooooh, count me in too as wanting one of these bags…and whatever else you make with Caturday on it =^..^=

48 EmmyLizzy 05.28.08 at 12:32 am

Hey folks – 2 new Caturday Totes have been posted in my shop. They take me quite awhile to make, so get em while they’re hot!
