This design is geared more towards the Canadians in the group. All backstitching is in DMC 310 Black EXCEPT for the loon. The loon's outline is in black, but the rings around his neck and his feather lines are in DMC White. For the loon's eyes, make the black stitches around in black, adding backstitching to define the "diamond", then add a french knot or black bead for the eye itself.

This design and the one following (July Five) were created because of the friendships between the people on the AOL board. Most of us are Candian and American.
I thought the White House and the Parliament buildings would be a good thing to distinguish the countries with the flags between.
