I went for Bokhara stitch on his pantaloons - to give myself a break from darning stitch, to get texture and to get sheen.
While the main threads in this project are Gumnut silks, the two golds are DMC perle thread, and I like the result.
I added an ear when I outlined the face, correcting a slight fatness in the shape of his face!
Now I'm rolling on the second panel.

He looks quite jolly! I think the ear was a good idea. I also love the Bokhara stitch, the effect is beautiful. Onwards!
Thanks Monica. Bokhara is becoming an addiction!
such a happy little chap, you certainly have a major project with these chairs.
He looks wonderful and it is great to change things too to suit yourself.
