Small Bear, Big City


A little while ago I tried out water soluble canvas (more about that in another post) and used it to stitch a lacy border.  I then added a Bear (as you do), the outline of a big city and instead of embroidering random stars I stitched the Ursa Major (Big Bear or Big Dipper) constellation. The bear is approx. 2 inches high so not that 'big' at all. :)

    1. :) I found some 'lace' examples in an embroidery book called a Rainbow of Stitches (at least I think that was the name) it's a bit like blackwork really.
