Fox Tree Project: Ornament #2


This is one of those tiny $1 kits that you find in the dollar bins at craft stores (I think the brand is Plaid). I switched out the aida for opalescent linen, and added some beads and a star to the tree to make it a bit more festive. On the model, the whole design was backstitched in black, but I thought that looked harsh, so I just used some grey on Santa and the bunny, and some rust on the fox, to give it a softer look. Not bad, for $1.

    I love it, HB!! Sure is worth much more than a dollar now. Love the little beads on the tree. Perfect touch. And the linen with it's little glittery touches is beautiful.
