BFF SAL 21 - a mouse of many colours

Thankfully last week's issue is fixed.

Many bits of colours and quite a swathe of white this week. Nice to see a bit of green but it all feels a little bitty at the moment.   Will be glad to build up some of those parts more next time

BFF SAL 21 - the One With the Comedy of Errors

Well... this week was an interesting stitch.  I started off by outlining the ears with peach. Then moved on to the 'light peach'.. hmm methinks, this light peach is darker than the other, by quite a bit, have I mixed them up??  Nope... looks at the thread, see the peach was fine, hmm sometimes magazine thread is unexpected colours ah well..

Get to the end of the light peach section and the thread was only just sufficient to make it.  But totally doesn't look like the picture in the magazine. 

Sudden light bulb moment... what did I just stitch with??

Last project thread.. from Rudolph!!

Oh no!!!!  This is what I should have had, on the left, the light peach just visible above my sweatshirt.

So my mouse had freaky ears.. can I live with it?? Nope.  So the remaining time was spent unstitching.

Off camera fix time is thankfully allowed,  so now finally the eyes and ears are fixed.

No more trauma please!!
