A little green frog
As part of a Christmas treat for my nephew, who happens to be fond of frogs, I've just finished embroidering this insulated lunch/snack tote -- perfect to take to the playground or to the beach. It could also work as a small book tote or can be used as a diaper bag.
My design inspiration came from Boo's book, How to Draw Animals.
I love the colorful illustrations. The step-by-step instructions are so simple and easy to follow.
I simply sketched the design directly on the bag with chalk and then using a back-stitch I outlined the frog with colored threat. So easy and so cute! Ribbitt!
