My project for course: Embroidered Pet Portraits: The Thread Painting Technique

I had so much fun with this project! The more I stitched the more attached I got to her, so I had to name her. Definitely a lot to learn and I hope to improve with future projects. The hardest part for me was the bridge on her nose; I took it out 4 times. One suggestion I would make concerning the Color Guide would be to convert the sections to completely different contrasting colors (i.e. 601 = blue, 310=yellow, etc.). It was difficult to tell which floss color was which on the Color Guide because they were so close in color. I do think it was helpful to use the class project for my first attempt at pet portrait embroidery. Thanks for the great course and I look forward to working my own dog as my next project.
