This is a simple maple leaf from Anne Orr. Isn’t it great?

It’s so simple that it could be a beginning project if you wanted to try counted needlepoint. I’m also thinking it would be great for other techniques using charts like beadwork, filet crochet or cross stitch.

Want to try your hand at beading on canvas? Stitch the veins in a dark brown first. Then make a mix of beads in fall leaf colors. Pick the colors randomly as you stitch. It will be glorious.
