This was my favorite pic at the time when I had just finished sewing it. You know how novelty entrances us.
It was my favorite photo back then because I liked the stitching that composed the picture. I stopped this type of embroidery as it was time consuming and only for aesthetic purpose.
Some people have invented their own unique kinds of embroidery and some have marketed their works. The embroidery could also be done on garments.
