Hi Everybody... Robin here.
It's always fun to see the finished stitching from my canvas enhancement classes.
Here are a few canvases with a common theme... DOGS.
Two of the dogs are from artist Paper Russell who is represented by DJ Designs.

Marlene Siegel stitched this Black Lab for a friend. She wanted to personalize it further, and the DMC Memory Thread was suggested to spell out Mabel's name. Nice job, Marlene.
Another dog by artist Paper Russell was the Black Poodle.

Caryn Scheidt had a Standard Poodle and wanted to bring this canvas to life. I showed her how to do the Gathered Stitch to achieve that the look of those ears. Caryn was most pleased. Me, too!
The last two dogs are from Maggie Co. and were both stitched by Robin Blitz in Montgomery, AL.
Robin is a dog lover and Schnauzer owner. Our first collaboration was this Schnauzer by artist Charlotte Holder.

I designed a special stitch which was perfect for the Schnauzer's fur. Happy dog and Happy Robin x 2.
And, our most recent collaboration from artist Frank Bielec (represented by Maggie Co.) was during a canvas enhancement class at The Needle Bug in Montgomery, AL.
Robin selected this whimsical canvas, "Fetch It Yourself."
