Embroidered Calvin and Hobbes Illustration

After starting this incredible embroidered Calvin and Hobbes Illustration for her sonโ€™s 7th birthday, Laura Hartrich persevered with rendering every excruciating detail of it and finally finished it for his 8th birthday!

It measures about 12โ€x14โ€. It is absolutely the most dense and detailed embroidery piece I have made to date. For the first time ever, I kept a loose tally of the hours I was working on this piece, just out of curiosity. By the end I was up to 95 hours. It was an intense project. I am so happy to have it done and hanging up.
