Itty Bitty mouse (2)

Little Christmas mouse number two. The second mouse from the 3-in-1 Margaret Sherry  kit that came with The World of Cross Stitch. 

I pretty much said all I wanted to say about this kit in the last post so I’ll be light on words here.

Each design is about 6x6cm and takes around 3-4hours to complete.  Definitely no more than 4hours. In this design I mixed a strand of purple metallic Madeira #4012 with the darkest purple on the bauble. It was a free sample that came with another magazine a while back. I think I should probably have added a strand to the light purple too in hindsight.  But it's too late now so I'll stick with being happy with what I've done.

I do know how I'm going to turn them into ornaments.  I'll save it till they're all done though.  Fingers cross it works (I like it when my ideas work out).
