My Stanley fan art (fan embroidery O_o)

Title: Tack-tack!
Character: Stanley from All Life is Yours to Miss, by saras_girl
Rating: G
Medium: Embroidery

A/N: Like many others, I am highly enamoured of Stanley, the unforgettable beetle from 'All Life is Yours to Miss'. I made this for vaysh11's birthday and have promised another one for the lovely saras_girl; I had hoped to get them both finished at the same time, but clumsy fingers prevented me.

Thank you very much to raitala who suggested I should attempt this feat of lunacy (trying to embroider a willow pattern onto an applique beetle was not the most sensible task I have ever taken on), and who luckily proved very useful with sewing advice!

This is so wonderful! I love the Willow Pattern shell (which is exactly what I had in my head when I imagined him as I read the story) and the tack-tacking!! So cute! And yay embroidery! I'm currently working on a set of dishtowels for a wedding I'm going to next weekend, and it's currently a coin-toss whether I'll finish in time. So of course I'm poking around Livejournal instead of sewing on them... :)

Ah, thank you very much! I'm glad he fits with your imagined Stanley. Good luck with the teatowels... LJ is terribly distracting when there is any sort of task to be done, I find.
