Designer's note: This design was inspired by a carousel at the Dallas zoo, which I used to visit when I lived there. The design includes eight warm-weather animals, all decked out for winter weather. But what brings the carousel theme to life is the stand designed by Matt Twist. (Stand not included) Or finish as individual ornaments!
The model is stitched on 32 count "Beanstalk" linen from Fiber On A Whim. This is a light blue fabric (the closest DMC equivalent is 3813). Stitch count varies by design, however each animal is 52 stitches high. The models are finished with plaid fabric and silk ribbon.
