It's done on canvas, something new for me. I traced my photograph, then traced it onto the canvas, using a light box. I brushed on the blue, yellow, and pink, then wiped much of it off. I painted faces, skin and hair then free-motioned hair, shoes, and socks.
Free motion quilting, beading, and trimming finished it up. I left a small border of batting showing. The backing is on upside down so the right side shows on the border.
What I really like: the movement
What I really don't like: the faces. I did them with a fine marker but wish I'd left them blank.

Looks to me like you did a good job ! The yellow swirl in the center does give the appearance of motion.
How'd it go with our little guy? Where was Nora?
Enjoy the rest of your weekend,
Janice
