I am in Port Elizabeth South Africa. I enjoy embroidery and needlepoint. We have a local embroidery guild that keeps us on our toes with new ideas and stitches.

Blue Diamond
Blue Diamond is the name given by my friends in Virginia where they the design at their ANG Chapter. After I come home after attending the ANG Seminar in Baltimore, my enbroidery guild asked me to teach some canvas work. I designed the piece using the newer stitches such as Jessicas. It has stimulated much in the local embroidery guild and was enjoyed in USA. The threads I have used are overdyed in South Africa.
Jessicas are a great stitch. I have done quite a few of them with Jim Wurth's Dodecagon ornament series.

Another excellent piece! You should be very pleased!
ReplyDeleteThanks Pat. I think the threads make the design.
ReplyDeleteThe threads are very pleasing and accent your stitches!
