Tiny Needle Tuesday - Zeke
Zeke photo taken in 2019 |
Zeke's mom, Stephanie asked her grandmother to stitch this photo of her precious little guy. Marilyn has stitched many photos over the years for family and special friends. She seems to love the tiny needle as much as she does making quilts.
Marilyn stitched the graduation portraits of her grandson and granddaughter, special gifts, and wedding portraits for Stephanie and one of her friends.

It was fun to watch the image appear on the fabric.

Zeke's stitchery is finished and ready for framing - a work of love and certainly an heirloom.
OMG that is amazing. What a wonderful gift of love to Stephanie and her family. How does she get the pattern? Please tell Marilyn thanks for sharing her beautiful picture. And thanks to you too.
ReplyDeleteThat is truly awesome. What patience!!!!
ReplyDeleteShe's captured that sweet face so perfectly. Wow! It would take me years too. I used to do a lot of cross stitch, but my eye sight just frustrates the process now days.
ReplyDeleteOh WOW! That is a gorgeous photo, but the stitched piece is simply amazing. Marilyn is certainly a gifted stitcher. What a work of love and what an heirloom. Thanks for sharing Nancy!

ReplyDeleteI have NO WORDS!!!! I'm in awe. Amazed and incredulous. And those words still don't do this justice. I've never seen anything like it. What an incredible gift of love. How did she do it?

ReplyDeleteIt's called thread painting. You use single strands from 6-stranded embroidery floss, and you have a bunch of colors going at once. I only know this from reading. I could not possible do it!
Wow that is a labor of love!!
