needleweaving and french knots



The last few days I have been working on this little piece of embroidery.

The needleweaving and blanket stitch are in a variegated perle thread and the french knots in single strand cotton.  

I am not sure what I will use it for yet but it was relaxing to do.

it is great to just sit down with a few threads and have a doodle can see you are enjoying doing it.

simply love your work. do you "make up" the designs yourself.? Great talent!!! Just wish I had the time to do this sort of thing. I need 48 hours in one day just to get thru "mundane" stuff .

Hi Anonymous, please leave your name so I know who you are.

I do make the designs up myself. I stitch while waiting for appointments or watching tv.

Hi Dian, beautiful embroidery. I love the long needleweaving, shows the thread off very well indeed. I know your wonderful talent for creativity, so am not at all surprised. It's always exciting to see what you are working on. Take care, and stay warm.
