Let’s Stitch Along to the End of Time!

I’m loving all the new February entries! It’s interesting to see how everyone interprets the theme differently!

That bag is fabulous @LadybugsAndBees

Yes!

Oh, why does it have to be a Leap Year? That’s one more day to wait for March’s theme!

He’s pretty cute. I think he’s an escaped pet (no joy finding owner through FB or SPCA though). I can get close but not touch. He seems happy, he’s been coming around occasionally for several months, and we sometimes see him playing with the wild bunnies :rabbit2:

I think I need to stitch a bunny!

We have wild city bunnies that come to the yard every so often. I named them Tiki and Tuki. The dogs don’t even care.They just look and go back to sleep.

Yes! Bunnies are so fun to stitch, sew, paint, draw, etc.

And, I think it might be one of the themes for March…:smiley:

He is obviously doing well, but I would not be able to resist trying to supplement his food and trying to give him shelter (NOT by trapping him, just by making it available to him). I would spend 9054 hours reading about ways to do it. Plotting it. Making it. Moving it 50 x to make it more attractive. And then be heartbroken because they have zero need for it.

So, I will just admire your yard bun, and know he is doing well.

Also, I.LOVE.RABBITS. lovvvveee them.

Thank you!

I finished this just in time, completely forgetting today was the last day if February.

First, the theme. Wheni think about “live in love” I think about my son, and crafts, so I knew I had to combine it somehow. I picked a picture that I love, which was taken on his first birthday.

The style: I saw a while back someone combining rough painting with embroidery, and I’ve been trying to loosen my style a bit so I thought maybe this would be a perfect time to try it. Lose stitches, no rules, just try to make it as similar as possible to the photo.

So here is my piece, it is done even though it doesn’t look like it. I’m going to frame it once I’ve found a frame I like.
