It has been a while that I had been wanting to give this technique a go. These last holidays I finally managed to try and I am really happy with the final result :)
The picture I chose is one of my daughter I took last year while she was having plenty of fun at the park :)
So I started by sketching the silhouette on a white paper, trying to figure out what were the lines to highlight.
Once this was done, I chose a cute fabric for the main focus of the work and started stitching on my drawing.

And once the coat was finished, I did the other parts of the silhouette and finally added another fabric as a background line. And I love, LOVE the final artwork! It is aesthetically pleasing but even more important, it has this special feeling about it as it is my little girl' s silhouette on the wall.
