Cross Stitch Bears

A few weeks back I picked up  couple of completed cross stitch designs. Somebody had gone to a lot of trouble to stitch them then hadn’t done anything with them. I wasn’t really sure what I would do with them but after the success of my “fabric on canvas” letters I decided that I would do something along the same lines.DSCF7538 I found this piece of coordinating linen in my stash.DSCF7551 Mixed up some paint for the canvas.DSCF7552 Then after pressing the linen to within an inch of its life I painted some mod podge onto the fabric. It is a really cold, wet day here today so I’m still waiting for it to dry before I do any more.

Waiting……waiting……

I love paint when it is at that stage of mixing.Wish I could use it like that.

Never thought to do something on canvas. Good idea.
