Next in line is Bunny's Tail.
2. The tail :
I have selected a dark brown color to stitch the tail.
The circular tail is stitched using Reverse herring bone stitch to give the shadow appearance.
I am posting all the steps in pictures below.
The thread used here is for illustrative purposes only . I am using 2 strands of DMC 6 strands thread for The Bunny Project
First one half of the circle is filled and then the next half .
So, we start in the center and work towards the sides.
The last stitch of one half of the circle
One half has been stitched using Shadow Embroidery
Starting the second half
The Shadow work completed on the circle
Back side of the work/ fabriC.
Weave the loose into the stitches on wrong side so as to avoid the loose end being visible from the front.
The tail of the bunny is now finished
You are welcome to join me if you want to stitch along .
