Mara's Ellie CQJP 2024


We continued the flower spread\


over the head and down the other side


Here is the start








And here is the end









Now for that big yellow patch

I wanted to fill it but not overwhelm it


I think this circle of branches in steam stitch

and a big blue and pink Butterfly






Cover the branches with Leaves and Roses

More on the right side of Ellie


Starting on the left leg I will be stitching 

a brace of pomegranate 


flowers leaves and stems

So first the sketch






Then the stems and pomegranates


Sewn in 3 strands of DMC floss


in a nice red and green satin stitch


The bumble is sew in bullion's




ow to just fill in the leaves with a bicolor 

light on lone side dark on the other


that's going to take a minute







I got distracted with making a spiderweb on the other side 


in that blank space that was teasing me



Where to put the spider?



A spring assortment in a cozy corner


I think I have enough room to add a dragonfly








I also added some daisies 


at the base of Ellie's trunk on the other side


Little bits at a time will eventually get filled in


And I still have the ears to do
