The Blue Flower ~ Stitching Squirrels

Inspiration for this design came from a vintage velvet tomato pincushion. Somehow that became two squirrels stitching under an acorn "bobbin" tree, an acorn basket and an acorn drum with the text "gather and stitch."

The model is stitched on 36 count "Sea Salt" linen from Colour & Cotton.

Stitch count varies by model - the Stitching Squirrels tray is 90 wide x 83 high, the Gather And Stitch drum is 191 wide x 41 high, and the Acorn Basket needlebook is 71 wide x 71 high.

Threads used: DMC - 729, 937, 3371, 3865 Weeks Dye Works - Cornsilk, Cappucino, Porpoise, Carolina Cecil Classic Colorworks - German Chocolate
