Thanks so much Connie. It was a really interesting piece to stitch, and a different approach to stitching than I’ve ever tried before! Definitely some lessons learned, but I am pleased with the end result.

This beautiful elephant has come along so nicely. He is so beautiful and I have loved watching all the different stitches, colors and threads being chosen and used.

Thanks Julie! Despite the project taking longer than it should have, it was good to see the progress made in my stitching during the time. Thanks for stopping by!

Thanks Gun! A very happy elephant this time! I think some of the TAST stitches are more for quite specific areas, but it’s good to learn and test them out!

So now I know why the elephant looks so familiar! I have the same book, but I haven´t been painting in it for a long while 🙂 I also once started following the TAST, but have sort of given it up. I stitched flowers and as you´re saying, some of the stitches doesn´t work in my flowers 🙂
Your elephant is so cute and he (she) looks very happy and you´d be so too! I´m doing a happy dance for you!
