Gunther Goes Trick or Treating
Gunther has searched and searched and finally found his favorite Halloween Costume. He's is wearing a ghost costume that hangs over his head with the eyes cut out so he can see. He's carrying a little bat friend to help him spook people on Halloween. I think he'll get lots of candy, don't you?

Love the expression and the colors you used!
Amazing! She's so sweetly beautiful!
Another thing you can do is to dab the dye on it here and there with a sponge for a mottled effect.

Awwww....adorable. Love the tuft of hair on the head too.
Very sweet facial expression :-)
Follow your heart.
By that I mean....what do you look forward to working on? What keeps calling to you? what can you not wait to try? etc.
That's what you should do...go with your heart and work on that. It will show in your work and give whatever you make that 'special something'

I use a pencil on lighter fabrics and a dressmaker's white pencil on darker fabric. Then when I cut I cut just inside the line so I'm actually cutting the line off. Of course this only works if your cut line includes the seam allowance.
/miniteddyhugs,
which upholstery threads you use??
It's Coats. I usually can find it at Joann's.
