Captain!

This is a captain of the high seas! sort of based on my dad, but without the pipe.

This one was an interesting one to make. I drew and painted the captain, cut it out, sowed it on to a canvas with a blue background, then sowed the waves. I really like the result and i think ill make more of these. Its combining my painting and drawing with my sowing!

My sowing work can be seen at my blog happy plush plush, the link is on the right hand side.
