Americana Eagle, Colored with Inktense Pencils

This afternoon, I went to Hobby Lobby and bought a box of Inktense pencils, using a gift certificate my mother-in-law Norma gave me.  After a bit of experimentation with scraps of fabric, I launched into coloring the background of the eagle.  A bit more appliqué stitching... some shading and adding feathers to the eagle... and now perhaps I am satisfied with it.

I laid some of the borders beside the eagle to get an idea of what it's going to look like.
