distractions

This is what I was working on while we watched the most recent presidential debate. It's a very spur of the moment embroidery idea based on a drawing from Kris Chau's website, that I love a lot. Carbon tracing paper is definitely my friend - I now look at a lot of things and wonder how'd they'd look on a tea towel. I have half a mind to fill the bunny in entirely with french knots. I love the idea of the nubbled effect but not so much the idea of making that many french knots. We'll see.

In my next post I may share my series of Sailor Jerry cheesecake pin-up girl tea towels that happened in much the same manner - I simply cannot sit still and watch television, I have to be doing something with my hands. I'll have to wrangle them all first though, as they long since went into dutiful, if scantily clad, service in the kitchen.
