Autumn Squirrel



Here's my Labor Day weekend progress.  The Pumpkin Parade isn't mobile so the squirrel went with us for a few days.  I'd say he's about half way done.  Once I finish I can go back to the Parade - right now glued to tennis :-) Hard to stitch when I'm watching my iPad instead of my canvas.

Love the tail.  It's one strand of Burmilana and then one strand of Wisper on top.  Not together in the needle - 2 layers.  Easy and perfect.  Plus,  I love how the split stitch down the nose works.




See you later in the week :-)

  2. I so love the way you 'centered' the squirrel by the direction of your stitches! It really helps to draw the eye to him!
