Stitch Along Project: Kitten (Counted Cross-Stitch)

I made this embroidery piece as a gift for a friend of mine. Pictures of the progress are posted below. The finished embroidery is framed into a photoframe with 5" by 7" opening.
The pattern was very easy to work with and the work progressed very fast. I might add backstitch for wiskers and eyes.
