I purchased a somewhat generic pillow case with a printed picture on it and decided to embellish it as a birthday gift for my sister. Seeing as i have no artistic talent regarding drawing this is an approach i have used before. I think it turned out really well and i hope that she loves it! I used the satin stitch mainly but also a few others to make a little texture. This is the first time i have used the blended thread and i really liked the effect. I hate to admit that it took me a month to do this, but between school, work, and attempting to have some semblance of a life i guess that's what happens. Anyway, i took some pics along the way to capture the process so here we go! hope she loves it (cause i sorta wanted to keep it ;)
