Hello, Stitchy Friends! I hope that you've had a wonderful holiday season and fabulous New Year! Today for this first Friday Instagram Finds of 2017 we're going to take a look at @rocketfullofpie. As an animal lover and mom to three Chihuahuas and one cat, I adore the pet portraits that Eleri creates! The textures, colors, and fabrics are fresh and fun, and really capture the spirit of the animals. You can read about each of the pets she creates on her blog, and you can commission your own portrait on her Etsy shop. Take a look at some of my favorite pictures from her Instagram feed.

Happy Friday (The 13th!), Stitchers! I hope you've had a terrific week so far, and are looking forward to a fun-filled weekend wherever you are. The Editor-in-Chief of Feeling Stitchy, Floresita, has created a Pinterest board with all of the Friday Instagram Finds posts, and you can find it here. It was so fun to scroll through and see all of the wonderful stitchers we've featured!

Today we'll take a look at Makiko's Instagram feed @makikoart! Makiko lives in Vienna, Austria and creates the most adorable embroidery, mainly featuring dogs and cats. I'm an animal lover (I have two dogs and one cat), so I especially appreciate her artwork. I get a smile on my face everytime I see her artwork. I especially like the confused pug wearing a tutu! Thank you, Makiko, for using #modernvintageembroiderydress.blogspotig! Take a look at her beautiful work!

This super cute hoop hits a little too close to home. It's like ~glenda snapped a picture of my life and stitched it up.  Okay, not really, but it's pretty dang close! Love the lettering!
