Secret Stitch Update I

I felt a bit guilty after only working on my Pokémon pillow, so I did do a bit of work on my boyfriend's present. Not much, but it looks a lot nicer with a bit of colour - I think. I am so glad I finished all the black lines. The plastic stuff is still bulgy and wrinkly, but it will be ok once it vanishes...or so I hope.

    It's looking good, and I'm sure it will be fine once the canvas has dissolved.
    When using soluable canvas I always stitch it onto the fabric with a running stitch before I start cross stitching. The running stitch is very easy to pull out and it ensures the canvas stays taught on the fabric.

    Thanks. Yes, I should have done that...was a bit too eager to start I think. Thanks for the tip!
