After finishing the first acorn, I decided to try using a single color for the base. I like the result much better!
I outlined the acorn top with Back Stitch and filled it with Jacobean Couching Stitch and single thread French Knots. The brown accent dots are all three thread French Knots. The leaves are all done in Long and Short Stitch with Stem Stitch center and side veins.
The color palette for this project is so pretty. Here are the floss color numbers:

Just gorgeous, Kim! And I agree, the one color base is perfect.
