Zelda stained glass Mini Update 8/18 page 13
I decided to test my embroidery skills and patience, and I found the perfect zelda image to use, it was created by Thomas Randby. Here is the link to his page if you want to check out more of his work: http://spi-ritual-ity.deviantart.com/

Re: New Zelda stained glass
That looks awesome! I so wish I could embroider but I have yet to learn how (tho I do have a kit...somewhere) and I doubt that I would have the patience required for it.

Re: New Zelda stained glass
Very nice, never could get the hang of embroidery when i was younger. I like my cross stitch where the holes are already there to keep me in a strait line. Beautiful work, will definitely be watching your progress!

Re: New Zelda stained glass
That looks amazing - I wish I could embroider! Might just have to learn once I finish some of my current projects.
