Starfish Tote Bag - Finished!

I finished Kari's Starfish Tote Bag!  I fought with the heavy canvas and eventually won. :)  I will be seeing her on Wednesday, I hope, and can give it to her then.  I used six strands of DMC floss (I always use that much) in purple split stitch and french knots.  Here are the pics:

Starfish Project Update

Here are the pics of the Starfish tote bag.  My friend Kari's nickname is Starfish. I have the one side finished, with the word Starfish on it in my handwriting.  I just used a pencil and wrote it on, then embroidered it.  The other side has one starfish on it and I will be embroidering 3 more smaller starfish on that side.  It is all done in split stitch and french knots.  I love to do both those stitches!  I hate the heavy tote bag fabric though. On with the pictures!
