I have to hurry up to post this Work In Progress Wednesday report before Wednesday is over - it is that late in the day here.
Crazy for Crazy
Seed and Bugle beads have been added to the lace.
BES (Brazilian Embroidery Study)
I used the Double Cast On Stitch to make a multicoloured flower. The stem is made of Laced Running Stitch.
Vaxholmskudden
Here is where I have spent most time this week.
In the corner pieces I appliquéd last week I have embroidered a heart and embellished it like this:
On the half circles of blue cotton appliqué I have started outlining a shape in Stem Stitch.
The ribbon along the edge has been secured to the wool foundation with Tied Herringbone Stitch.
What a wonderfully multicoloured flower!
ReplyDeleteI'm liking your crazy.
ReplyDeleteGreat stitching and embellishing progress. I like your additions to the VHS. It's filling up with stitching goodness.
ReplyDeleteI especially love your crazy block. Always waiting to see what you will add next.
ReplyDeleteI have to say, Vaxholmskudden is my favorite at the moment! The colors, the fabric, the stitches - all fabulous.
ReplyDeleteMy goodness, you have been very busy.
ReplyDeleteI like the bugle and seed beads and that your thread s are all white. That sets off the work beautifully.
The BES is so very original. I love the bow.
The Vaxholmskudden is fabulous and the gold appliques have my admiration.
