The easiest would be to print the photo, draw on it, scan it and post it. Paint seemed like a little less labour intensive!

Re...What a stunning poppy hanging that will be WoW!<br />Remind me I have a smaller flower UFO pieced in a workshop, ohhh maybe 2 years ago : ( <br /> That too would benefit from machine stitchign in the style you have used, itv was fused fabric shapes laid onto a background and like you, we used original photo shots as inspiration. Blow me, cant recall the tutors name but she was lovely too and so informative.<br />Im also in the Grow Your Blog and intend looking for a Giveaway amongst the 2 x shopping bags of items bought at shows - cough cough - that didnt come out of the carrier lol best get my finger out if the blog post is to go out on late friday night!<br />Can I ask what software you use to draw the stitching suggestions onto the blocks? The butterfly block is completely lifted to another level with the choice of additions youve suggested!<br /><br />liniecathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15643986273499722414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-355830180271785865.post-61763137676488566532014-01-22T14:45:47.462-08:002014-01-22T14:45:47.462-08:00some lovely work on the hexies.
