A little project for a friend’s birthday. He be loving the black and red. Me, I love this juxtaposed against the quilt.

This isn’t finished, plan on more embroidery but wanted it as done as possible.  One of the reasons I use some kind of bonding adhesive for my appliques is that when I embroider a motif down that isn’t bonded it tends to move a bit and that makes my pentagrams not point correctly. But I only found out his birthday three days ago and it’s in a week. So decided to leave it as is and hope he’s glad for the obvious handmadeness of it all. There shall be color in the corners etc…

I love this cotton print…
