I have been asked about the availability of punch needle kits. I have 2 links to Punch Needle suppliers and they do have an assortment of kits to offer for sale. This is an extemely popular craft in Australia and I know there are sites that offer more selections that are based there. I have also found ebay to be a terrific resource for supplies at great prices, especially if you want to make your own patterns and only need the needle and fabric. Just do a search for "punch needle" and check it out.
My finished project examples today are my homage to Laurel Burch's cat designs. I have loved her stuff for years so I thought it would be fun to loosely interpret them in my favorite craft. The cat face in the center of the top picture measures approximately 3 1/2" wide by 3" tall just so you get an idea of the size while the other cat design is 4 3/4" wide by 8" tall.

Those cats are just fabulous. I have two real cats of my own and am crazy about cat stuff. Those project examples are just gorgeous.
Thanks for the link to Bob Coonts, Linda. His work is gorgeous!!
Your work is beautiful. I just had to comment on the Laurel Burch cats! I absolutely love her, and was fortunate to meet her once and get her autograph on a print. She did the artwork at the Oakland SPCA and they had an event she attended. I bought enough Laurel Burch cat earrings to last me the rest of my life!!
Again, beautiful work!!
Ok, those kitties are seriously cute!!!
