My boyfriend is leaving for basic training in about a week (Navy). I'm looking for patriotic-like patterns, something I'm not good at finding since I usually do fantasy. I just need some ideas.

Military patterns are now on sale here. I'm not aware of any freebie ones, but if I get some free time, I'll go hunting smile

since this is a topic "about ideas", I'm posting this in here.
Okay, so my friend likes princess tutu or Ahiru from "Princess Tutu". So I looked for a nice and small pic and came up with this one. User Image
What do you think? Actually, I already bought the threads, so I just need to wait until they get here and can start stitching.
Do you have any ideas on maybe making it look less squarish? Or should I just leave it square? Or maybe a nice border frame or some little ballerina slippers at the corners? Or, I could stitch a little Ahiru as a duck on a corner? Hmmm, any suggestions?

I'd probably say a nice little border with some ballet slippers in the corner, or something would probably finish it off nicely.

Otherwise, the pic is really pretty. I bet even if you just matted and framed it for your friend, it'd look really nice.

Its a nice picture but i think it will be really hard to make into a good looking pattern without making it larger. what i would do is find a picture of her with a white back ground and just her body and then maybe only stitch the waist up or chest up. all the white in the patter makes it sort of complicated.
