    Your map of the states embroidery looks great! I have been thinking about it since your last post, it is such a cute idea... My husband loves maps and travel so I may have to do something similar. I'm thinking maybe for a throw pillow or wall hanging?

    Your map is so sweet! Will you be embellishing once it's outlined?

    Shark bunny! I have a similar picture of one of my cats with his eyes and ears just poking out above a blanket - so cute and hilarious. Thanks for sharing George with us!

    I really like the idea of the map embroidery. What method do you use to transfer it? I know that's definitely a beginner question, but I've been practicing embroidery stitches but have no idea how to actually get a pattern onto the fabric to make something for real!
