Default WIP-FMQ Mule Portrait

We had a "snow day" today so I got to stay home and play! I spent the day stitching on a portrait of "Ben", a friend's mule. He still needs eyelashes, and I think I'll use the bright green thread to add some vibrant background quilting so that he stands out from the brown background, but here he is so far. The portrait is done totally in Isacord poly embroidery thread on a single piece of fabric.

And here's the pic I've been working from. I think it looks at least sort of like him...
