40 hours later…almost done
just a few more finishing touches needed. I think i’m going to trace the white outer edges with black a bit…i find it annoying that i can’t see the picture well enough. Now that it’s done, i have no idea what to do with it. I’m torn between mounting it on canvas, or framing it…any ideas? I love being able to stitch while watching T.V. I’m almost through the second season of Criminal Minds… awesomeness.
up next… de-stashing some stamping stuff left over from that craft obsession… look for it on an Etsy near you… or message me if you might be looking for some stampin up supplies.
Back to Dr. Reid… mmmmmmm

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…
