Now tell me, if you had the choice of wrapping presents or finishing this cute thing, which would you choose? I know! This one could easily be done start to finish in a couple days if it weren't holiday time. I even brought her to work with me today so I could enjoy her at my desk. I'm a dork like that dontcha know.
Here's how she started the evening. Looks like a sail mouse to me. LOL!
Here she is with the chart cover. See how tiny she is?!
Here's a closer look with a quarter for size reference. She can actually sit on top of that quarter! Look at that cute little mouse belly and those wiskers! Squeals!!!
Here she is balanced sideways. She measures about an inch and a half from nose to bottom. I'm impressed she balanced like that. Must be the way I sewed the button weight on the bottom. Too dang cute!
Thanks again, Christie for remembering my birthday and for gifting this kit to me early. I really had a fun time stitching her. I can't wait till you to see her in person!
Well I guess I'd better try to redeem myself off the naughty list and get on with it already. I hope you enjoyed seeing this little cutie and I hope Santa brings you some stitchy goodness next week! Thanks for visiting with me today!
Until next time,
The Inspired Stitcher

That's the sort of mouse I can deal with. Gorgeous finish, cute and oh so sweet.
Love the mouse! I broke down and bought the kit, since my family called me Mindi Mouse when I was a kid.
