Year of Stitches #2
Year of Stitches I don't work on this project as frequently as the original challenge requires, but I'm progressing at my own speed. After the blue stitches were added ( shown in this earlier post ), I saw an "H" and an idea quickly came to mind. I like where this small piece is headed. I have a lot of DMC floss on hand, so that's what I'm using for this Year of Stitches project.
New Challenge
beginning a Year of Stitches January 21, 2017 While I currently have enough projects and potential projects to keep me busy for decades, I took on a challenge at the February Fiber Guild meeting. Vicky B. presented a program on embroidery and the Year of Stitches project. I haven't embroidered in years, but it quickly came back to me. The concept is to work on an improvised design a little each day. I started with the pink and light green swoops in the upper left at the meeting. Saturday evening and Sunday, the other stitching was added. I had no idea what I was creating, but once the feather stitch in the middle was added, an idea popped into my head. I'll occasionally post my progress.
