The Man in Stitches

I ran out of fleshy pink thread so here is Johnny Cash so far.  The blue ink washes out with plain water.  (Haven't sewn that guitar strap yet... it's the procrastinator in me that said I needed to start this.)

Guitar Strap Update

My Clapton drawing needed work.  Boy, was he a challenge. I revised it and gave him long hair and am very happy how it turned out.  Each face is about 3 X 4 inches -just big enough to get the right amount of detail while still being simplistic.

Embroidering is all done and now all that's left is sewing it into a strap.  Sewing is not my forte so wish me luck!

I started work on my genie piece and included it at the bottom.  It's a rough idea but it let's you know what I have in mind.

Lighting is a bit harsh but the images do look better when clicked on to enlarge:
