FINISHED and MOUNTED

Well it ended up the moth/butterfly and I used photo transfer and then free motion embroidery over the butterfly (I will call it).




I am still having problems with stretching and puckering and need to really concentrate on that.  Very noticeable on the top right part of wing.  As it is still not mounted I may get away with it with putting backing between the work and the frame.  Really enjoyed this technique again. 

Update:  I pinned and stretched on a board and managed to flatten most of the puckers down to just creases and it is now mounted.  The picture is now of the finished and mounted work.

    Your butterfly is stunning. What is behind? is that what it is/will be mounted on?

      I used the same technique as the boat ... TAP photo transfer and then I worked into the butterfly by machine. I managed to stretch out some of my problems and the pic is now mounted (replaced pic with new one).
