Needle Sing*

*Thank you, Woody Guthrie, for giving us a song about crafting, with a whole verse about knitting.

But Tuesdays mean cross-stitch, don't they?

You can't tell it here, but I am working on yellows in the girl's hair.  I don't know how the rabbit is going to get eyes, but that's a step much farther ahead.

It struck me a day or so ago that I don't know what I'm going to do with this when it's done!  Possibly a pillow?  It's a big piece.  Plus, I'm kind of running out of wall space for something else framed.  It just doesn't strike me as something that should be framed, anyway.  Does that make sense?  Maybe it's the needlepoint vibe of it all?
