An embossed herringbone pattern gives a quilted look to the background and Cocoa peeking out from a spool of thread fits the sewing theme. Thanks "SEW" much for looking!

Cathy, I simply love that herringbone background - I hope you don't mind if I pop this into the technique gallery for it! I've never added embossing to it - it gives it such a wonderful soft quilted look. And of course Cocoa is always sweet .

Love that beautiful background, Cathy! A perfect way to use up those pretty scraps I have around my stamp room.

All the sponging on this card and the great papers is so beautifully done but that adorable mouse image is cuteness to the MAX! Both your cards are so super Cathy. Thank you for creating such stunning cards for the In Stitches challenge. Hugs!

I really like the way you embossed the bg......it truly looks like quilting! Cute little Cocoa and thread is a great addition.

Oh, Cathy, what a gorgeous "quilted" background, and I love the beautiful DP you've used! The embossed really makes it feel like a real quilt too!! And Cocoa is adorable! Just love him with the thread and thimble!! Sweetness! Hugs, sweet friend!
