These are the things I can work on and not get so fatigued. My problem is, once I start embellishing, I find it difficult to stop with the piece. They really turn out nice and are not garrish. What I do seems to blend in with everything.

Really liked yours and the work you put into it. I buy lots of panels anymore.

So fun for me to do. Hancocks had a large wall-hanging Santa on display a few years ago, so I bought 2. Color choices were the traditional red and an absolutely soft mauve/pink combination.

Anyway, bought some fur that one can buy like lace on a card, to use on cuffs and bottom of suit. Then embellished it to the hilt. I thought it was stunning when I finally finished it. Don't usually brag about these things, but it did turn out better than I could have ever imagined.
