Recently I've fallen in love with the idea of embroidery. Why you ask? Heck if I know. Two sites have really caught my interest, (here and here) and the designs have inspired me to start my own project.
I ordered patterns from both these sites, but they have yet to come. Instead of wait around for the mail to arrive, I decided to draw my own (based on the children seen here). I thought it might be fun to do a Harry Potter inspired project, and last night while watching TV I finished Harry himself. Next to come is Hermione, Ron and Crookshanks.
Right now I'm embroidering on a scrap piece of white cotton. I'm not sure what I will turn it into yet, ideas will be welcomed.
And, last but not least, a picture of the man of the hour:
