Though the embroidery guild I was invited to join Spaceneedlers a group who are about to celebrate 25th anniversary as stitchers creating together in the Pacific North West

The first stitch we engaged last night was a review of the french knot-my Nemesis.So today I’m just going to head into the studio and do some good old fashion practice. I did better at the more complex stitches so once I’ve contained all fabric and ribbon to the studio the hand work will begin.

Well it didn’t go too well -my poor technique resulted in one perfect rose and a bunch of unique creations. I’ve painted up some waste canvas so I can try out techniques in alpine flowers which will probably end up as bookmarks-they’ll hopefully be too dimensional for postcards.
