20 Bunnies Finished Up Over The Last 2 Days By Another Artist And Myself (the Original Squares From Which

20 bunnies finished up over the last 2 days by another artist and myself (the original squares from which the bunnies were made were knitted/crocheted by a larger group of crafters). This is a small part of a far, far larger project that's in the works.

This one will scan (in person) using QRdroid for android phones, but none of the free iPhone apps I had (Qrafter, Scan and QRreader) can read it. This one (R) is done in a composite stitch - French knots pinned in place by split cross stitch (the two strands of each arm of the cross stitch fall either side of the French knot). I couldn't find this stitch in any of my stitch dictionaries, but I'm sure someone must have thought of it before. For now I'm calling it French Cross Stitch, but if anyone knows another name for it, I'd love to know.

Just to let everyone know, the giveaway is now over, and the winner has been contacted. As promised, I wrote everyone's names on bits of paper, stuck them in a hat and got a curious cat to stick his paw in an pull one out. Your hat for this giveaway was Pink Floyd and the cat was Zeno. I wish I'd filmed it, but I needed both hands to hold the hat open for him.

Day 62.

Geometry is a beautiful thing.

This was my mini-relaxation project last night, and a test piece for some quilt designs. Pretty annoyed at how wonky a couple of the lines are, but that was a mix of: canvas distortion due to embroidery hoop when drawing the lines in the first place, and my fabric pen being too erasable. By the time I got around to the last lines the marks were pretty much gone.

I think the next step would be to set up the fabric on a square frame and prick the design instead. Or maybe I should just hand-sew it, instead?

Day 72. I took a few days off because I need to buy more thread and needles, an because of our minor heat wave. I do not function well in heat.
