blackwork

I love pincushions/needle books so I often end up designing/teaching these accessories.                        

a blackwork biscornu...

small motifs

I've been designing and stitching small blackwork motifs for the past few months.  

               

                         

These motifs are stitched on 14ct aida with anchor floss.

Happy stitching!

Black 'n' white sampler update

I started working on my sampler again last week and this is where I am after 5 hours of stitching.

                                      

                                           

I know there is lots more to do but hope will get to the finishing point soon unlike my cutwork project.

Have a great week!

Happy stitching!

Black ‘n’ white sampler progress….

The last time when I showed you this sampler I’d finished the outer border and started working on the diagonal lines.

                                                     

 

                                      

I've completed the diagonal lines and before I started to fill the diamonds/squares I've stitched all the four corner triangles… 

                                        

I’m really enjoying working on this sampler and in fact it reduces my stress level J

Happy stitching!

A sampler in progress

I’m working on this black ‘n’ white sampler now…

                                                     

                                         

I've finished the outer border and started working on the diagonal rows. I’m using stranded cotton thread and aida fabric for this sampler.

Happy stitching!

Bookmark

Hi!

I’ve finished a bookmark...

                                    

I’m happy to put this one in the box for sale. I’d shown y’all the ones which I make for myself and not the embroidery which I do either for commission or teaching projects  till now. May be I’ll show some of them in future, watch this space…

Have a great weekend!

Happy stitching!

Anita.
