Stitch Maynia Day 9, Field Mouse Hollow

Hello again. I'm so excited to get started on this one. This is one of my first pattern purchases when I got back into cross-stitching again in the fall of last year. This is Field Mouse Hollow from With Thy Needle and Thread, designed by Brenda Gervais. Anyway, I already screwed up, so I'll have to rip out the stem and leaves. I was anxious to get started on the mouse, but I didn't like the color of the floss for the mouse, so I jumped over to the dress. Well, I counted wrong and now I'll have to redo the stem and leaves. Ugh. I'm converting Classic Colorworks to DMC and the color for the mice didn't look correct. So I'll have to find something I like.



Also part of the problem is that as soon as I get up in the morning I make my coffee and start stitching. Maybe I should drink a cup before I start, because I tend to make mistakes when I start so early, around 6:30 am.

Okay, it's late. I'll check back tomorrow with Day 10.
Happy stitching!
