I know a lot of people who visit these boards love Mitch O'Connell and so do I! This is based on an image in his tattoo book.
Yes, it's a bit creepy but I love this clown Cheesy
I used mostly split stitch, long and short stitch and satin stitch and it's on a piece of quilters cotton, I plan to frame it.
Here's a close up which has come out distorted and thus even more creepy, but show's the stitches a little better

(ps for those who like to see loadsa pics there are a couple more on my blog x)

Currently taking a hiatus from swapping.  Sad

I've always wondered what disease cured ham had.
