Dawn's Stitching 2011-? New start Dec 1 pg 17

Post by dawn0621 »

First, here's my long-awaited first waste canvas project. It's a drawstring backpack. I'll probably add something else on top, but for now it's finished and I'm pretty happy about it... :wub:

Some of you were wondering about my project from The Silver Lining, an artist local to me, so I'm finally starting a thread. This is the first of four charts of his I purchased ages ago. It's called Sterling Silver.

What a neat idea for the back pack - looks really great.

Love the Silver Lining Rose, so delicate and you have made a great start on it too.

I used waste canvas to stitch the design onto the bag.

Here's my latest progress on the roses:
