Progress on Sampler

Glove and toilet roll

Not sure whether to work it simply, with just the Izal logo, or whether to try to copy the watercolour effects from the artwork.  Will the watercolour effect add to the imagery, or detract from it?

Do I work it fairly simply and pared down, until it is finished, then decide whether to add in more water colour effects?  I'm worried that if I try to get the water colour effect, I will wreck it, and won't be able to undo it as the threads will be tangled.  I don't want it to get too busy, but also I want it to be sufficiently complex to read as an original work and to be VERY difficult to copy.

Starting to stitch the 30p entry fee sign and money slot.

This is about 4 hours work, and I have simplified it from the sketch.  There is another layer of stitch to be added.
