Charity stitching

Here's the most recent piece that I have completed for Love Quilts. The brief for this one was simply "Disney Characters" These tend to be fairly easy to stitch, the nature of the pictures means that there is very little shading involved so there are not to many changes of colour. This does also have it's downside too though, if it is a large area, as in the Simba I completed a couple of months ago, it can get quite boring to do. I did cheat a little bit on this one. The pattern had the table cloth stitched in white thread on white fabric, I just stitched the backstitch without doing the white underneath. I don't think you would know if I didn't tell!

I think my next one for them will be one for the Any Child pot. There are a number of themes here, one of which is hearts. I have a design programme for my PC, so am going to try my hand at designing something myself. We'll have to see how that goes.
