Mr Rabbit, summer mornings and a cross stitch




When I am going into the garden on early mornings I often see this little visitor. He is often around the grass area or under the lemon tree. He is coming early enough to not get wet from sprinklers or before the dogs go out. He is just sitting quietly in a corner, enjoying his non-fat organic breakfast :) I am trying not to bother him - but he has plenty places to hide if he wants to.

I love this peaceful moments and I was so happy to find this cross stitch design from Little House Needleworks - I think it reflects my feelings! The design called Morning Berries and I loved to stitch it. It is now displayed in our living room, right next to a basket of flowers from the garden. I can have my own little piece of summer any time of year by just looking at it!

Thank you, Diane, for such a wonderful design!

This is beautiful and the bunny is adorable! Might have to put this in my to do pile. I am interested in the chart you used for the Fairys by Wildflower Stitchery. I did a search but didn't find it. Could you let me know the name of the chart so I might find it? I'm starting to think Xmas gifts! Thanks.

Thank you so much for your comments, guys - I am so pleased!

To Stitching Cat - I am following your blog now :) The chart I've used to stitch that little fairy angels was published in JCS Christmas Ornaments 2008 Issue - and I never found it to be sold separate. So I think this is the only source. Hope it will help!
