Given we are hopping I am going with a bunny again this year
It is a cover kit from Crazy, the grass is in one strand the bunny and watering can in two. They were fine to do (well it did have in the middle of the stitches backstitching but it looks so caracterful that was forgiven), but the sky, half stitch in either two or one strand of the same shade of blue and my eyes just got totally and utterly lost on the colour pattern. Half stitches require rewiring of my brain trying to work out were to go and how to get back so differently from the full cross stitch. So I will tell you a secret...Shsss just between you and me.....
I said ah! fed up with this, gave up even trying to follow the pattern and just lobbed in random stitches till the space looked sort of filled. I will probably get away with it as long as the designer (Margaret Sherry) is not participating, she would be sure to notice.
The frame is almost the letter you need but my wonderful (or not) camera skills have flattened it out a bit so I shall make it a bit smaller and clearer.
Now you have my letter off you hop to
