I found it at Sarah's Hand Embroidery Tutorials where there is a video.
Here are my photo instructions:
When I work the Sunbonnet Sue illustration for the revision homework, I usually stitch the outlines with Stem Stitch and use the five homework stitches for the actual picture, for example, the texture of Sunbonnet Sue's clothes and her hair.
Stem Stitch is an easy and quick stitch and one of my favourites. For this Sunbonnet Sue picture, I wanted to outline everything with Split Stitch as it was one of the five set stitches.
Ha! It took MUCH longer than I had expected to work the illustration this way. There are also a lot of lines in this particular picture. Anyway, here she finally is:
Instead of a sunbonnet it is a camera that obscures her face. It also tells you that my Sunbonnet Sue is a photographer. More on her story in future blogposts.
Work In Progress Wednesday reports:
I have spent some time on darning and repairing clothes and household linen. My workbasket had been full for a long time, and I just had to deal with it.
There was also Sunday Stitch School's revision homework that I did not manage to complete last week, if you remember, and I am happy to say I can hand in the completed Sunbonnet Sue on Friday.
These are my excuses for only having
Hexablooms
to report on in this WIPWs report.
I stitched another ten hexagon flowers. How many are there now in total?
300! Yes, I have reached 300! Only 77 more to make, which means eight more weeks if I can keep up the pace.
