Hi, my son has learned an amazing fact - the ancient aztecs used to call an avacado tree a * tree as they thought avacados looked like *, he is 9 and thinks it is hilarious!! Anyway I would love to make a cross stitch to remind myself of this moment in time, any help would be appreciated as I dont have the 1st idea where to begin!
Size - up to 10"
Material - 14 count aida (white or black)
Thank you

You should probably search Google under images for an avacado tree image you like. I've been looking and I'm not sure if you want something that does look like * or just a nice image of an avacado. Considering the story, I'm leaning towards the former, so here's a link to a page with a nice black and white image of two avacados hanging on their stems. You'll have to scroll down the bottom to see it, but I thought it was the best image from the first three pages of results.

I like that photo If I could somehow incorporate the words Avavcado balls even in tiny lettering that would be perfect! He learned it a week ago and still laughs about it everyday
