I used Sharon Boggon's excellent template to mark an undulating line for Stem Stitch.
I attached a dragonfly lace motif and made a few flower petals in silk ribbon embroidery.
Both are from my stash of gifts.

I wanted to do something in WOOL on the wool embroidery cushion, and Bayeux Stitch came to mind.
That wool work is coming along nicely, and Bayeux stitch was a good choice!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful progress!
ReplyDeleteI like the dragon fly and the stem stitch line.
And lots of bullion roses to add color.
Your VHS looks great with the new stitch too, the design has good balance.
That wool embroidery is looking so good.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like you were able to do quite a bit on all of them!
ReplyDeleteYour Stem stitch is so neat. It isn't always easy to control the stitch on curves.
ReplyDeleteThe bullions are lovely and the cushion is gorgeous. The Bayeux stitch is great as the base.
That dragonfly seems happy to have found such a lovely garden.

ReplyDeleteYour little snip of dragonfly really adds movement! So pretty! I think back on all the hexagons you've made and each is so special! This is going to be such a masterpiece!
