Embroidery from child's drawing


This embroidery was done from my friend's grandson's drawing. It's a picture of a dragon with a yellow tie and green hat!

Adam has Legs!

All of Adam is done now except for his left arm. Am starting on Eve now, working on the legs up.

More French Knots!




I did two more french knot pictures. The bottom picture was taken from a children's book illustration. I'm sorry I don't remember what the character's name is or the illustrator. If you do know who it is please leave me a comment.

French Knots!!!!




I really like Maira Kalman's illustrations. I took a picture from her book "Max in Hollywood, Baby" and did it in french knots. I really liked the end product.

Cross Stitch of "The ItT Crowd"



I did a little cross stitch of the character "Moss" from the BBC comedy "The IT Crowd." I drew up a pattern from a still taken from the DVD of the series. I then stuffed the cross stitch to make a little "Moss" ornament.
