For the summer season, the "trunk town" is hopping. Many of the tree cavities that a woodpecker creates are utilized by other animals throughout the year. This shows some of these creatures in a fun format, along with native plants and vines.
Note from the Designer: This was my first time working with the Valdani 6-strand embroidery floss and I love the way it shows off the subtle variegation in the birds and flowers. The design features several colors of coneflower and a trio of songbirds who enjoy them.
Here is a garden you can enjoy all year round! The inspiration for this design comes from some of the wonderful flowers (and a butterfly) native to Florida.
Note from the designer: This is a companion piece to Forest Home, and celebrates the amazing plants and animals of the grassland prairie. I had such fun with this colorful design, and included some of my favorite characters as well. I hope you can find something familiar from your home.
