I've been working on the Dire Cat project with lots (to me) of
satin stitch and I needed a break, but needed to get my creativity out
too. So, this came into being. Stitches used: chain, braided chain, lazy
daisy, stem, French knots and a tiny bit of satin. It took about 2.5 hours from start to finish, and is about 2.25 inches wide and 2.5 inches tall, approximately.
This will be part of
a collaborative project between myself and hubby for a neighbor. We're
making their daughter a growth measuring stick, and this will go at the
top! (Any bits of ink you see will disappear in a little while - air
soluble marker.)
