Done

[crafty-kat.livejournal.com]

jiggies* I'm done with the embroidery. And yes, I do have a picture, all be it a crappy, scanned one. But it's there ^_^. I can tell that this is my first time doing embroidery, I can see where I made mistakes, and where I'm trying to figure out how to do a stitch, but I'm still proud as all get out! Dustin gave me high praise indeed when I showed it to him. He stopped what he was doing, turned around and told me I'd done a great job and that it looked awesome! I'm so pleased ^_^. Now I want to do more, but have nothing to do it with lol. Karen (who taught me how to do this) used some special sort of iron on paper ink thingy. No clue what it is. But it ironed the pattern onto the cloth. Anyone know what it is and where I can get hold of some, or what I could use instead?? I'm not quite ready for freeforming just yet.
It was so much fun to do this. Like painting, but with thread instead of paint ^_^. I feel positively artistic *chuckles*.
Oh, anyone have any ideas on what to do with this now it's done??? It's in the middle of a piece of linnen. Can I somehow make it into a patch? Or something? I'm at a loss as to how to use it and show it off lol. I hate the idea of it just lying in my craft drawer again.
