Tapestry Crochet

I've been experimenting with tapestry crochet lately, after I made the Mario mushroom hat for my brother and realized how fun it was. I made this musical note piece, which is going to be a part of a messenger bag I'm making for my sister-in-law:


Now, a good friend and fellow crocheter/knitter showed be this awesome site: http://www.microrevolt.org/knitPro/index.php

I've been having a lot of fun with it.
