Honor Thy Father
See www.flickr.com/photos/automaton-design/2212241119/ for the original drawing I used. Gabby Moore is the artist not me.
Its about 10" high by about 11" wide on a 17" x 17" piece of white cotton.
The spider legs are coloured in with a bit of Crayola and Prang crayons so you can see them a bit better. The banner is filled with seed stitches. Its all done in 2 strands of floss except for the hairy parts of the legs which are done in 4 strands.
I am happy with the way it came out and I am glad I kept the American spelling of honor (instead of honour) because I would have had to make the letters smaller to fit . Plus I had already used the marker on it so I was stuck with the lettering :)
