Just dropping in to post what I’ve been working on this week. We watched Alice in Wonderland the other day, it’s one of my very favorite movies. So i decided that i would like to use it. I printed out a coloring page and transferred it to a hand embroidery pattern,that was a first for me. Turns out it’s a pretty huge task with all the little details and such. here’s where i am progress wise….. I still have to finish the white Rabbit, and Alice and some little details (they’re off to the left of the picture… this alone took me over 20 hours…) yikes! i guess I’m petty slow, although this is my second big-ish hand embroidery.

here’s the one practice piece i did before attempting this one…

well, were off on an overnight trip tomorrow,lots of time to work in the car i suppose… then it’s back to Christmas gift making. I don’t know about you guys, but I think I have crafters ADD. Wayyyyyy too many things started, not enough finished. happy weekend Everyone!

I love the poppies. I was thinking of making a skirt with embroidery for a while, but always kinda thought it would be too hard… I will check out those books you recommended!
