I opened it as a backdrop in Art and Stitch and traced the swan and here is what it turned out like after much reshaping:
And here is the swan stitched out:
Not bad for a first attempt.
And then I decided to stitch it again but this time with 2 swans and my first attempt at water:

I love watching the process of quilting the swan. Really? That's your first attempt? Very well done.

Leona, I can see that you are ready for an extra challenge: Swans have feathers, so you could see the inside of your swan contour as a new canvas, to draw some wings and feathers as a continuous path.
Open the photo again as a background and let it help you to "see" the feathers.

Loes will take that challenge and see what I come up with.
