Little Panda (Animal Fayre and Needlepoint for Fun)
Needlepoint for Fun has posted a simple free stitch guide for the "Little Panda" design created by Animal Fayre.
https://www.needlepoint-for-fun.com/needlepoint-stitch-guide-for-animal-fayre-little-panda.htm
They even have a tutorial for finishing this yourself.
https://www.needlepoint-for-fun.com/how-to-finish-a-pincushion-or-small-needlepoint-pillow.htm
The website is the distributor for this British company in the United States. There are a series of Little Animal kits from Animal Fayre, and the guide can be used for them as well. It's a good demonstration that embellished canvases don't have to have a ton of fancy stitches or be light coverage, or be very hard, either!

Woodland Christmas Animals Series (Renaissance Designs)
Are you a fan of the charming animals from the Renaissance Designs "A Woodland Christmas" series? I am! So I was pleased to see that there are stitch guides (and kits) available for all the portraits and rounds from this series.
http://www.renaissanceneedlepoint.com/new/new.html
There is no guide for the stockings or larger designs from the series, but Renaissance Designs is adding to the smaller set so I hope that a guide will be available for things like the brand new sleeping fox.
