Craftalong Un-swap part 2: embroidery

[ilovepaper]

I agree... everyone did fabulous embroidery work!

Melbakat, those bibs are great. I love the embroidery, did you make the actual bibs too or did you buy them?

Is anyone else burning midnight oil, like me?  I hoping to work on my project the day after Christmas.

706Designs, I'm hoping to get mine done after I get back from vacation (I'm in CT right now and sadly away from my crafting supplies!) I think I might just embroider my boyfriend's name on his stocking...who knows though

Thanks! I actually bought the bibs at Target, they were the only place I could find plain bibs to embroider on.

I think i'm giving up on this one till after the new year...i have to quick make a scarf for a christmas gift...so I may just switch projects for these two months

Yay, I finally got the pictures uploaded (well my husband did). So here is the scarf. There is a similar set of dragonflies at the other end of the scarf, but they are not visible now.


And here is a close up of one of the dragonflies. So I stencilled the pattern and then followed the outlines with something that might be a backstich (if there's such a stich ).


Off to plan the knitting project...

I was thinking that you copied off someone else, and then realized that it is an update pic. Some days I am so special! I love that skull, it is super cool!

ok, so i had a little time last week and i was playing around and embroidered a goomba (the little mushroom dudes from super mario bros.) aparently it holds up very well. i didnt realize it but my puppies were playing tug of war with it they ripped the fabric alittle but not the design.
