Foxes are one of natures most beautiful creatures.  But most plush versions of red foxes are in one way or another, inaccurate.  I have tried to solve that problem with this little fox.  His markings and eyes are what you will see on a red fox, even down to the paw prints. His coat is stitched with blended flosses to help achieve a more realistic appearance. You also have the option of which type of brush (tail) to give him--traditional cross stitch, or turkey work. The first five photos show the turkey work tail, the last three show the traditional cross stitched tail. Who says that cross stitch is only good for flat things?  Now you can stitch a doll using cross stitch for the details.

The animal is stitched as 18 pieces which are then cut out and hand sewn together.  Full assembly directions with illustrations are included.

This pattern was hand designed by a professional artist/crafts person
Finished size is approximately 8" tall x 11" long from nose tip to back of tail when worked on 14 count fabric.  The image is composed of 19 colors.

THIS IS NOT A KIT. THIS IS NOT A FINISHED PIECE.

Each pattern contains:

* Color picture of the finished image
* Pattern in black and white symbols on several pages
* DMC floss list
* Full stitch count
* Floss use yardage
* Directions with photos of how to assemble the animal

Design contains some fractional stitches and backstitches, appropriate for an intermediate stitcher. Pattern may be worked on different count fabric which will result in a different sized finished product.
