Dinosaurs!
I have a new embroidery pattern available in my shop. It is called Dinosaurs!
This was such a fun pattern set to research and draw. Now I am enjoying stitching the motifs.
I really love this T-Rex. I drew him in two sizes, one size that is in relation to the other motifs, so that you could stitch a whole prehistoric scene and he would be the appropriate scale to all the other dinosaurs and trees and plants. And I drew a big stand alone size. I just finished stitching that one:
Notice his big sharp teeth? As you can see, I stitched them in white floss. The white floss against the white ground fabric wasn't really showing up so I added a single strand of a murky green colored floss and made a straight stitch on the edge of each tooth.
It really makes them stand out:
I think I am going to stitch this little triceratops next:
Here is a look at the pattern packet:

Kim, honey, you're sweet!
Thanks for adding the translator ... it became easier for me to keep track of your beautiful works.
And how cool these pre-hitóricos reasons!
Some time ago, my nephew has a collection of dinosaurs ... I'm sure embroidered bags, cover notebooks ... will appeal very much!
Have a great weekend,
kisses,

Just catching up with my visits! Kim, I just love these, they are so cool and I think they'll be really popular. I've never grown out of the fascination with dinosaurs! I hope you stitch the trike next, I love the T Rex , but triceratops are my favourite!
Every time I see dinosaurs I think of little boys. Dinosaurs and little boys just go together! I think any little boys would love these.
I think the way you worked the teeth was a great idea. It really makes them pop!
I just checked out your etsy shop. What a great selection! I will be back to shop...after I finish some of my unfinished projects. How in the world I have so many going at one time is a mystery. Sort of! LOL!
Ligia - Thank you! I hope so :)
Have a great weekend!
Jules - I need to do the same! I love the triceratops too, I think he will be really fun to stitch.
Darlene - Thanks! I am so happy with the teeth. I have so many wips I know just what you mean!
Great teeth! Fantastic design.
Thank you KreinikGirl! I love his teeth!
