For those interested in the art of embroidery, Ms Cowie is offering a five-day workshop in June 2011 at Les Soeurs Anglaises in the south of France. 'Creative embroidery: learning to observe'. How adventurous would it be to travel to the south of France to feed your passion?)

Wow this is very great designs. It is simple but indeed it's elegant.
ReplyDeleteIt's so intricate. Just breathtaking to look at.
ReplyDeleteA cross stitch can also be done. This is a type of stitch that works in that a series of diagonal stitches that move from one spot to another can be found. This works in that you will create a crisscrossing pattern on the fabric and then go back into the opposite direction to create another pattern like this. When the process is completed you will be able to get a line that looks like a series of Xs created onto the back part of your fabric so that a deeper line that does not have many gaps in it can be found in the visible area.
ReplyDeleteThe process for making embroidery stitches is a good process for you to use. With this you will be able to get the best stitches created as well as to work with different types of patterns.
