I thought I would share some photos of a regular visitor to my garden!

'Foxy' seems to have developed a taste for plums!  Recently this rather beautiful vixen has been coming into the garden to pick up the windfall plums.  When there aren't many on the ground, she has taken to leaping up and snatching them off the branches!  I have tried to capture these 'leaps' on camera but haven't managed it yet . . however, here she is in the garden, snuffling about for the windfalls!

She has inspired me to design a square for the A Stitch A Week sal for my group, Friendly Stitchers - but I thought it might be nice to share this particular chart with all of my blog-readers, not just members of FS.

So here it is . .
Plum Tree Fox

I hope you all enjoy stitching 'Foxy' :-)  At just 20 stitches square she is tiny enough to fit a key-ring, scissor-fob, card, etc - so be creative, and don't forget to let me know how you get on with her!

Buzzing off . . .
