To give myself a little break for some of the day I started the other design by Making Strangers. Same process as before I stitched through tissue paper, it's a slow old job and adds time but its the easier way of transferring the design with out using pounce which is just as time consuming.
The stylised clouds didn't take to much time to stitch, I opted against stitching the rain or the trees in the end it will be easy for me to work out where they go by eye rather than the tissue paper.
Still a bit more to do on the clouds, couching round the outsides, adding in a few more lines and highlighting with silver/gunmetal coloured thread. But so far so good. Looking forward to stitching the rain, trees and a tiny little guy which will be standing on the upper cloud. For now though its back to the hair I go!
Just wanted to stop by and tell you I have given you the versatile blogger award. Please stop by my blog to pick it up. (If you don't do these types of things...that's fine...at least you know I enjoy your blog) :)
