Maybe I would start with “Oh What a tangled web I can weave!” as my opening today! This summer I started to include more embroidery stitches in my artwork and am finding this slow stitching is a delight! I go through the tutorials and books, Pinterest examples and more, to gain an understanding of how different stitches appear and how to include them in an artistic way. Wait until you see the result on the “Weed Block”, a part of my latest efforts! This. photo shows the center of a giant chrysanthemum using a bullion knot. Adding the sparkling beads and voila, a gorgeous creation. For now, back to my needles and threads . . .
