Denim Dude

What a day... our second snow storm for the week!   Kids are home and I decided to try my hand at an embroidery butterfly.  I did some embroidery when I was younger but haven't touched it in a long time.  My mother just sent me a box of knitting needles, crochet needles and embroidery hoops, so I had everything that I needed.  

I've been wanted to try fringing denim just to see how it looks.  I was trying for the worn out look around the edge.  Not sure if I achieved it but it was fun none the less.


I've been playing around the orientation of my little butterflies -- what do you like the side view or the full open wing view?

  1. I like both views, but I think you could of added some more color and detail to the wings.

  2. You're right. I was so busy working on the fringe that I didn't spend much time on the embroidery.
