My First "Large" Project

Post by shauniew »

Ok, so it's not massive, but I recall it took me ages to do and there's a rust stain on it somewhere (I have learned from my mistakes). Like fool I threw the pattern away and this design goes for a few quid on ebay now:

1996 I did that, blimey!

I'll post a pic of another piece I did that has a chocolate stain on :D

Love the dalmatians! :wub: Loved the film as well! :wub:

Cant see any stains where it matters - when you get round to framing it, I don't suppose anyone will see it - the mount will cover up any marks that aren't actually close to the stitching!

This is really cute! I also like how you put the date beneath the title (maybe it was charted that way, I don't know) - it would be really fun if you stitched several Disney pictures and put the release date underneath. Sort of like movie posters :D :D

Hi. Sent you a welcome on your earlier thread, but wanted to say that I love your Dalmations. They are so cute. and didn't notice any stain as I was too busy admiring your cute little dogs.

Hi!

The kit was sold as a birth sampler so the idea was you stiched the name of the kid and their date of birth/weight etc but I wasn't interested in any of that and did the movie title and release year.

I did a Snow White one too:
