| 2012 Christmas Embroidery |
This little guy was a Christmas present for someone special. Obviously. If they get handmade, they have to be special, right?
I found a similar stitching online, and pinned it to my inspiration board for later viewing. When the time came I printed it out and laid it under my fabric on the lightboard. If you are wondering, yes, the patterned fabric made it impossible to do any tracing. This was fine as I was mostly just using it for dimension. I added my own touches just for the recipient: cats, and birds abound. Of course, the patterned fabric also made it impossible to see the fabric pen, and I ended up tracing over most of it with a thin sharpie.

Even prettier in person!! Mad embroidery skills, I tell you (among others!).
Do your talents never end? Awesome detail. I particularly love the birds.
Ahhh, I am the lucky recipient! This beautiful stitchery is up on my wall to enjoy each day! I love all the detail and of course, the subject matter. The colors are my favorites. The stitcher is someone very, very special and very, very talented!! Yes!
