    1. I don't have any 'in progress' photos for a tutorial but will do one at some point. The 3-D effect is down to a padded slip and there is a really excellent tutorial here : http://theflossbox.blogspot.se/2012/02/embroidery-slips-tutorial.html

      It is a stumpwork technique and it looks harder than it really is - give it a go!

  3. I'd be proud to hang your eyeball on my wall, even if it's a little creepy. I already have some of your work but I'd love more!
