Sharing...my first 2 attempts at punch needle...



I meant to share this awhile ago...I had gone to a quiltshop and bought my FIRST punch needle pattern ( with 2 designs ) from " Stone & Thread " ...Well...my first one turned out better than the second try...so the first one went to Robby my buddy from Scotland.
So ..first one, the tree and moon was sent to Robby and I have the second one hanging on a little wire tree....

*Update* New Pattern Available Look only if you like more extreme primitive




Ok first a story...Two years ago I was making this dolls head, and my older daughter , Ashley BEGGED me to do a doll with freckles ( like her)....Well the doll was allready looking more extreme prim but when I added freckles, I decided to keep her more "ugly" to be funny...Ashley thought it was cute , but I never made a body or anything..this headless doll floated around my craft room for 2 years now...
So...yesterday, I decided to finish her up and keep her "ugly" unlike my daughter Ashley ( she really is a pretty thing)...lol
AND...I started making up the pattern for her also...
Sooooo...what do you think? go with the pattern???... or No..she is too ugly ???What ?
