Am I right to assume "FO" is "Finished object"?
Slow going, but I've had a busy week. Had a wild Friday night with the last of the back stitching.
Now to figure out what to do with it.. Frames can be expensive. ๐ฃ While I think on it, on to the next one that's been sitting for a few months ready to go!
Happy Friday, everyone.
I love these foxes! Something very Beatrix Potter about them.
... Is that a Harry Potter reference? ๐ I'm so new back in to the cross stitch scene, and I live under a rock.
Nope! I've never read/seen Harry Potter (I, too, live under a rock). Beatrix Potter is the English author from the late 1800s who wrote The Tale of Peter Rabbit and The Tale of Squirrel Nutkin, among others. When I was a kid I had a set of her books, and her illustrations (which she herself painted in watercolors) had the whimsical quality that your cross-stitch has. ๐ฆ๐งก
Aww, thanks for sharing that, that's lovely. I've read the Tale of Peter Rabbit when I was a kid, too, but back then, I wouldn't have remembered any authors, just the stories. ๐
