Mr. Slide is finished.

Mr. Slide has already left Squiggeeland and landed in Camden Maine earlier this week. It is always interesting to see how the worked piece compares to the painted canvas.

I didn't do any fancy stitches, he is all basketweave. So much stopping and starting, the only thing that made him fun , was the changes that came about, by using so many different fibers. I love the way one fiber will enhance another, especially the blings..aka.sparkle fibers.I did tweed fibers in the blues, to give interest. I am not sure what stitchers call this technique today, I only know it as tweeding( two strands of one shade and one of a second shade).
He is on 18st, and will the size of the little Prince Frog, small enough to hold in the palm of your hand I can't wait to see him finished. I have no doubt that Stitchery Square , my finishers,will spin their magic on him.
