Piccolo Keyring Design

As I liked the Vegeta Design so much I thought I would make myself a Piccolo keyring, I I got stared in the design,


I stitched two of them so I could sew then together.


And here is the finished thing, I am really happy with the way theist turn out. I have also tried to makes it fairly strong so it should break anytime soon.

Vegeta Tapestry Keyring

Here is a little design I made, using a Vegeta Sprite I found of google Images. I changed it a bit and also did a normal form of Vegeta as well. I made this for my friend who is a fan of Dragon ball Z. I idea was to make a keyring with the normal version on one side and the Super Saiyan version one the other, Here are the patterns I used for each side,



I flipped one so that when I sew it up the shape would match on each side,  Here is the finished Keyring,



I made these using plastic canvas and cotton. There will be more designs in the next coming posts.

Dog Cross stitch design

I have been asked to do another cross stitch for a friend at work, so yet again I start with a drawing thats it shown below



Then using a light box I transferred the drawing to graph paper and then decided on the colours


Now I have the pattern, all I had to do is fine the right coloured cotton, me sure the aida and then stitch it, Below is the finished design,


I used a selection of full and half stitches to add depth to the drawing, I am really happy with the way this turned out,
