Embroidery Technique

This is an experiment that i did of little red riding hood. I tried to restrict myself to only stitch the outline and and the fill-in colour as a means of practice before my final outcome, this allowed me to get used to the technique and face the issues i may or may not encounter during the creation of my last outcome. I obtained a plain cotton fabric red embroidery thread, embroidery hoop and a needle. i first drew out my design of little red riding hood with a pencil, i then embroidered a satin stitch around the outline of the figure i drew. After doing so i started to fill-in the stitched outline of the figure eventually creating a 3D cartoon like figure out of red embroidered thread. The reason i decided to do an embroidery technique is because it uses a adventurous variation in media to create an artistic expression through uses of textures, All in all i found this experiment highly beneficial in how it has given me a better look and idea of what and how i am to create my final outcome, for instance i have recently become aware for me to effectively stitch my design i will need the aid of a sewing machine it will be both more time  saving and efficient.
