Anna Scott is starting to create a new embroidery design and talks about how she is going to build the central figure using stumpwork techniques on this blog entry.

Now he's got a head and a scarf and some of his jacket is in place, too.

Anna finishes off the scarf and gives her floating man a face--and a hat!

Many of the tips and techniques she uses are applicable to needlepoint that incorporates stumpwork.  And besides, it's just durn interesting!

I'll update this as Anna makes progress on Drifting on the Breeze.
