Once again I have chosen a rabbit for my Easter themed stitching.
This is Anchor's Peter Rabbit from Cross Stitch Crazy.
Now as you might have guessed from its name this was designed for Anchor thread, but I mostly use DMC and with the help of an online conversion chart this is completed in DMC. There were French knots on the handkerchief and for the light in his eye, I was not feeling like struggling with them so I just did a tiny white stitch instead.
And now for your letter, this year I was ahead with my sewing for the blog and took the opportunity to sew a little something for my letter. So this is also from Cross Stitch Crazy issue 212 (Feb 2016) Black work Rabbit (although it looks more like a hare to me) by Lesley Teare. It has been awhile since I did any blackwork so this was fun.
So now you have your letter from me hop on this link that will take you to the next blog, happy Easter, happy collecting and stay safe.

Thanks for taking part in the Easter Treasure Hunt this year.
Love your Peter Rabbit, it's a very well designed piece. The little blackwork bunny is very cute too. Quick work!
Peter Rabbit is adorable. French knots are not all that challenging, although I tend to do a Colonial Knot instead, never knew there was a difference.
LOVE LOVE LOVE the blackwork rabbit - that might JUST be what I've been looking for to stitch for 2021 year of the Bunny. Lovely to meet you through the HOP
