Just like the bunny
While foraging at a thrift shop I unearthed a little crewel kit, circa 1979. It seemed the perfect time to try something new. I washed the small bundles of wool and let them air dry in case moths had wandered by and taken a bite or two. They had but only half heartedly.
It was so much fun to stitch!
I made a few tweaks. I replaced the pink wool supplied for the berries with navy and burgundy: blackberry colors. And turned four flowers destined to be yellow petalled, into white trilliums. I thought that seemed more wild and woodsy. Just like the bunny.
How To
Doesn’t it look like the little girl is trying to teach the chickens how to fly? I painted her in gumboots but where’s her sweater?! Must be a typical fall day.
