I managed to get the embroidery for the top of the pebble finished this week.
Couching and french knots round the backstitched spiders’ webs.
With chain stitch in variegated silk thread.
Chain stitch converging on a patch of couched boucle thread and more french knots.
In shade.
And in a rare patch of November sunlight.
I’ll put it away for a few days before I start making it up.
i was just looking at this while you were commenting on my blog. i can’t wait to see where you take this. it’s so interesting to be able to follow each others process rather than just seeing a finished product.
That’s quite cool that we were both viewing each other’s blog at the same time! I agree with you – the process is much more interesting and inspiring to me than a finished product.
Yes, always a good idea to let things rest a bit to be sure you’ve done everything you want to have done!
