Is that applique or did you color it in? The colors are vibrant! There is a whole lot of stitching on that section, a lot of tedious work, but the results are amazing.

The color comes from "Inktense" pencils. Unlike regular colored pencils, these are actually ink. I use clear aloe gel instead of water, once the ink drys it is permanent...They are made by Derwent

Beautiful...very original and very cleverly done. I wish I could "lose track" of time so beautifully.

Wow...that sure is pretty! Great job at FMQ. I would have never thought to color or dye an area like that. What a great idea!

Very cool....The title caught my attention b/c my fav color is purple and one of my dearest friends and I call each other "peapod" so I was wondering what the combination held....I love it!!! :)
