Fox

Here is some progress on a new embroidery. A fox in a stylized forest. I'm trying to keep the colors to a minimum, but I do have four shades of green, two golden browns, an ocher and a blue for the foliage. Now I'm starting to wonder what my background filling color will be? I need some contrast. Maybe a pale goldeny-orange? I don't know. I will take the embroidery with me to the craft store and hold a bunch of different threads up against it until I find the right one.
