So this is number 1 of a trio of towels I'm doing with sprites from the Studio Ghibli movie Spirited Away. This one is of No Face, and the next two will be of the soot sprites and the mouse and bird.
I must say I'm really happy with it. Towel fabric is absolutely not made to stitch on, and the progress was slow, but with some soluable canvas and some patience, I made it.

That's such a great project Looking forward to seeing the next two, I'm sure the soot sprites one will be adorable! I was thinking about doing some towel-stitching myself and after seeing this I definitely want to ;D

Re: Spirited Away towels
It's been a while since my last towel. Had a lot of christmas gifts to do and a wedding to plan. But now all the Spirited Away towels are finished! I'm really happy with these as well, and I'm already thinking about new towels I'm gonna do. Maybe some chocobos and mogs.

I don't think I can possibly top the eloquence and nuance of QB's post, so I'll simply heartily endorse her sentiments instead.
