Blackwork...May ornament

This little Elephant is stitched on 32ct evenweave as my May ornament. It was a very rainy day today and when it wasn't raining I couldn't go out side because of the humidity and mosquito's.

So I pretty much stayed in and stitched. I realized that I hadn't done an ornament for May. So here he is. The pattern was given to me on Thursday. I collect Elephants so I had to do him. He is pretty I think.

Have a good weekend and stitch with happy fingers.

This is amazing Beatrice! What a unique design and great fun. Any day with rain is a great day to stitch so why not use humidity as an excuse too. Of course, I look for any excuse to sit and stitch or quilt. :)
