Deadliest Catch (Its Not Just For Crabs!)

Deadliest catch; Its not just for Crabs
This was an embroidery project I did using crayon tinting and hand stitching. I copied the pattern from the dover tattoo clip art book, enlarged it and transfered it onto fabric using a transfer pen and a light box. To crayon tint you color on the fabric then Iron the project face down on a piece of paper to wick away the wax, leaving just the color. Then you stitch in the details. When I was done I stapled it to an artist canvas and glued shells around it to make a frame.
