Summer sewing project

I have been wanting to sew this dragon for about 2 years now. This summer I decided if not now…when? So I hauled the sewing machine up the stairs and started my summer project. I spent about 15 hours on this thing and I am pleased at the way it turned out. This was my test dragon that I promised my 12 year old he could have to hang in his room. The next one I make I will try to use more colors and patterns, I am thinking reds and greens with a hint of deep gold and purple with just a splash of black…Ohhhhh all the yummy variations I can come up with, it just makes my mouth water.

As it turns out, I am pretty darn proud of myself for completing it. It should look pretty neat once we hang it up. I have just a few tiny details to add, then up he goes.
