Made this for a friend who likes sugar skulls. I eliminated some scroll work and added beading to entire project. Turned it into a pillow with black material and ruffle. It came out beautiful and she loved it. I've been stitching for over 55 years and enjoy adding beads when I can.

very colorful skull
This project turned out so cool - my only complaint is that due to the number of color changes, I had to use a method to keep track of where I was. The colors chosen are vibrant and will be a great gift.

Great Pattern
This was a great challenge and I loved making it. It was made for as a gift and I was incredibly happy with the end result.

This is great
I did this up on one of the cross stitch totes I bought from this site and it worked up beautifully. You need to pay attention to the details but it goes quickly and you get instant gratification. I had to alter the bottom of the design a little bit because there wasn't quite enough space to fit everything in but the skull was in tact and it is definitely a one-of-a-kind item. It makes me smile and everyone who's seen it just loves the look. Pretty and functional.

Considering how intricate this piece is and daunting the pattern looked when i first opened it up it was fairly easy and well work all the work. Lots of compliments.
