I work from my own photos. I enlarge them on the computer and trace them onto tracing paper.

Getting the shading color is difficult. You should not be too disappointed. I didn't notice the added darkness before you mentioned it and after studying it again - I still love it and admire the job you did. I have been playing with fabric paint. I have a picture of my Mom with one of her Great grand babies that I would love to make.

Beautiful work Leilani. You have captured the precious facial expression perfectly. I have been trying to study your technique. Would you mind telling if you use paint or stitch on the face? I am guessing paint but would appreciate any discussion of process you feel comfortable offering.

I hand sketch the face with coloured pencil. On this one I deepened it a bit with black fabric pen, but was disappointed as i think it is a bit too black

For cute for cute, for sure! Makes me miss my three little boys. They are now six foot plus grown men.

So are mine. But doing this project I was out there in the backyard with him again. And getting lots of bruises from his wiffle ball!
