…my true love gave to me: a meme that comes straight from TV!
It was quite by accident that I found this pattern for a Christmas’d version of Homer Simpson moving silently through Ned Flanders’ hedge, but knew right away that I had to stitch it.
Luckily, my local needlework shop (always support your local needlework shop if you have a choice!) had the requisite Christmas green aida cloth, so I was able to get started on him right away.
He fits perfectly in a 4″ hoop!
The backstitch really creates the illusion of the hedge, and the two little French knots for his pupils are the finishing touch.
Thanks for looking – Merry Christmas! 🙂
