Hopefuly this pic will load this time!

This is an embroidery of the Greenman by Urban threads. My elder daughter asked me to embroider this for her brother in law. (This is third time I have sewn this pattern. It is about theThe BIL has had the green man tatooed on his arm. The photo shows my work against his arm. The embroidery took about 2 hours to complete. After I had completed the embroidery I mounted it onto a canvas frame so that it could be hung up. If the picture uploads this will be the first piece of my work that I have put here.

Caroline, YOU DID IT!!!! This is great - I have thought about stitching this out - for another - a couple times - but have never managed to get it done - so it is good to see that it stitche so nicely. Isn't it unique to have someone - to give this to that will really appreciate it - I can see this on a tank top for this BIL of your daughter, so he can wear it and show his tatoo, too. *4U

Thanks, yes this took ages but it is beautiful to watch it appear. The eyes are quite haunting and I feel they are stareing at me. My husband loves the design too and I made him a cushion then made the design as large as possible. he is still thinking what he wants me to sew this one into.
