Heaven forbid I go two days between finishing a project and starting a new one.

One of my favorite coworkers, Erin, just announced that she's leaving the company, so I wanted to stitch something for her.

We have Wine Wednesdays with a couple other coworkers every week, so I originally bought this:



But the person doesn't look anything like Erin.

So I wound up buying this one as well:



Since that one looks a lot closer to her.

I scanned both patterns in, opened them in Photoshop, and combined them to make one big pattern from the two individual ones.

I also tweaked some colors to match her haircolor and etc.

So this should be a quick, fun, quasi-custom piece.

It's 2-ply, over 1, 14 ct Aida.

What great projects and your "tweaking" will only add to it.

this looks like a great project. I can't wait to see the outcome of it

That's just brilliant! It will be perfect when it's done! =}

Love them both, can't wait to see the tweaked version you make!

Wow! Can't wait to see the result!

Great designs

What a great combination, can't wait to see these on the fabric

They're really fun designs. Can't wait to see the tweaked version

That'll be fun to stitch up!

Love it, it looks like fun to do.

It is always fun to personalize a pattern for someone special. Thes are such fun patterns!!!!

Let's see if this works...I have to put my progress pics in my Gallery here, since my coworker is on my Flickr feed.

Looking great so far, this is going to be fun to watch

Great start! It's looks like fun!

Great work!!

great start!!!

This looks like fun and you've made a great start. Looking forward to the next update.

Halfway done now, minus the text in the sign, which I'll do last.
