10th April "I" Post
"Ice Skating Hedgehog"
Welcome to 10th April and posting Day 9 of the "Blogging from A to Z April 2015 Challenge". It's Friday... and raining... but it's still Friday!!
Today is "I" - "Ice Skating Hedgehog"
Hedgehog: A hedgehog is any of the spiny mammals of the subfamily Erinaceinae, which is in the order Erinaceomorpha - in other words... a little cute and not so furry animal!
As I mentioned yesterday I don't have a current "I" WIP, which meant I had to think about what to stitch for this letter of the alphabet. After looking at ice creams, icicles, Ink Circles (the designer) and ice skaters I finally settled on Margaret Sherry's "Ice Skating Hedgehog".
After some stitching last night while watching a couple of episodes of "Fortitude", this is what he looks like.
This particular design was originally published in the UK CrossStitcher magazine back in February 2009 (Issue 209). I am stitching it on the last of my "Arabian Nights" fabric from Stitches and Spice.
Tomorrow is "J" Day and I am still thinking about what I will stitch on tonight to showcase "J".
Til next time.... Happy Stitching and Happy Blogging!
Hugs xx

Ice skating and Hedghog, two phrases not often used together! But MS designs are always cute.
How about something for a person whose name begins with J for tomorrow? Haha.
