Here's a red mouse to join July's scrappy rainbow challenge. Finding fabrics for red mouse took quite a while. Some reds start looking orange and, of course, value can be tricky given the slippery slope toward pink. The value can't be too dark or the mouse's black eyes and nose won't stick out--an important cuteness requirement.

  6. I agree that reds are hard. I have orange leaning, brown leaning, and pink leaning, but not many true reds!
