Wolf's Craftstravaganza

I've posted a few of my crafts in the past for the wonderment of all. I decided to get out my box of unframed objects and see what it held. I don't know if I'll be able to restrain myself to one per day, but I'll see what I can do.


Counted cross stitch on 18 count aida fabric.



This is supposed to be a set of Christmouse ornaments. In order to complete this project I would have to cut out carefully placed ovals around each mouse, sew it to a backing, stuff it with cotton batting, and make an attach a bit of braid around each one, also forming the hanger.

That is the reason that this has not been done. That is too much motherfucking work. I let the cuteness of the design overwhelm me into purchasing it, without thinking of the hell I would have to endure to make the ornaments.

I may eventually have it framed as is, but I will remove the guide threads.
