Mollie at wild olive posted about the stitch and send project recently asking people to stitch up patches to decorate bags to be distributed as part of a charity project. I stitched up 3 designs. This is the first one I did I wanted it to be unisex so I doodled this little guy. I thought he suited a retro chain stitch embroidery style.
Did anyone else stitch and send? I have to admit I was a little late sending so I hope they receive them in time to put them on bags for the thanksgiving event- fingers crossed for speedy postage!

How wonderful!! I really love your use of chain stitch. It adds such nice texture and gives it almost a tribal feel. I'm looking forward to seeing the rest!
ReplyDeleteYour little fox is adorable. He makes me want to get my needle and thread out, only it is dark and I can't see at night to stitch! ;) Tomorrow...
ReplyDeleteBeautiful stitching, I love Mr Fox, lovely colour !
ReplyDeleteYes, I participated in the stitch and send too...but I had to do it my own way! I sewed fabric patches, rather than embroidered ones, and I made the tote bags for them too. Here's my post about it: http://lesliesartandsew.blogspot.com/2012/10/a-chance-to-share-what-you-make.html
