I found the cutest pattern on Wee Folk Art for an embroidered hedgehog. I seriously think these are the sweetest little critters and I wanted a mascot for the sewing room.
I got it all stitched out sitting in the evenings in front of the tv and even gave her a name. Henrietta! Not original, but she was going to be mine and I got the choice.
Then I changed my mind. This is now a gift. A Christmas gift for Cody's girlfriend. She has a little hedgehog by the name of Reggie and I've decided in all my infinite wisdom that this will be one of the gifts I give her.
There are no step by step photos because it is simple embroidery. I did use Osnaburg fabric for this piece. I like the way it looks for something that is going
in a frame. I took this photo frame everywhere trying to get a picture without a reflection. Holy cow and thank goodness for dining-room tables.
I also got her Christmas decoration done so now there are 12 of them in the gift box. No idea where I found this pattern but it might be mentioned here. Of course, now I start the process of thinking about next year's decoration. I wonder what is new out there this year........maybe this will be the one!
I am starting to see light at the end of the Christmas gift making tunnel. I'll be sharing more this week and then hopefully I am done. I'll check the box first to see what is there. I'll make a list and then I better check it twice.
