Melissa Shirley's Wild Bill

 Here is Wild Bill.  I have finished him and he is off to Funda Scully with Calamity Jane for finishing.  He wasn't done here but I loved the stitch for the pink wallpaper border.  I used beads for his six shooter's handle to make it a true pearl handled gun.

 I used this stitch for his coat by the lapels and I added fringe. The stitch is from a fabulous book called Stitch In's and Out's by Little Shoppe Canvas Company, Inc.  I suggest you get this book!!!  So fabulous.
I used the buttonhole stitch for his hair.  Hair always gives me fits!  Here he is finished below.
