First Embroidery: Girl with Balloon

3.5"x5" DMC floss on tea-dyed cotton.

 

My first try at embroidering a whole 'picture'. Prior to this I'd just done a flower here and there.

 

Obviously not so great. I was experimenting with various stitches and techniques. My favorite bit is the hair.

 

Poor girl needs a nose job though.
