Hi guys so I've been so busy with commissions and ended up in hospital for a bit that I decided to take a break and do something for myself (sorry I'm back to doing my projects for others now).
And I decided to make a frozen hoodie to wear to see the film as I just can't get hold if any clothes here yet! Here is the drawing I did to show what I hoped it would look like xD



and after much swearing and needle injuries this is what it looked like.



i know the outline is too much and her face got scrunched along the way. I didn't want to spend much money so I used my sisters pillow case xD xD and well it didn't agree to being used as a base and it's what it took to save it. Anyway it took a lot of work so I'm sharing it with you although I'm not 100% happy, it's still keeping me warm. Thanks for looking!

Thank you! I'm self taught. I figured if I wanted a detailed picture I should draw it in bold and then put white fabric over it and trace it with the stitches. I will use a thinner paper next time though as when I removed the paper it loosened the stitches trial and error! I've done some googling in beginners embroidery which taught me the two basic stitches I use and the rest I make up as I go along
