Grow Your Own - 20 hours

Hello all!

My stitching life continues to improve, so I was also able to work on Bothy Thread's cute little Grow Your Own bunny this month.

This is how she looked after the first 10 hours:



I'd already added 5 hours in December and another 45 minutes in January so only had to stitch 4h 15m in March to reach the 20 hour mark. That was enough time for me to finish off her body, add the fur and whiskers backstitching and add just begin to fill in the lettuce leaf.

So here she is now:



Going forwards, it's time for all those wonderful vegetable colours to start appearing, and that's really exciting!

Take care,
Rachel x

Beautiful! I love the idea of getting all the backstitch going while you stitch along as well, much easier than saving it till the end. It looks so great on that fabric!

Looks like he could just hop away. Beautiful! Love the whiskers and backstitching. Adds so much. Glad to see you are getting more stitching time. Take care!

This is a lovely super realistic design. He looks like he might jump off the fabric!
