A bizarre little rhyme that I don't know when or where I learnt. However every spring it pops into my head!
Burdy! |
It's embroidered on linen and all I've used is backstitch and satin stitch. The faint purple outine is an air soluble fabric pen and I love using it! It's all be vanished tomorrow and it's so handy for sketching out my ideas.
I have many embroidery books and lots of plans for detailed intricate pieces, but some how, I always come back to chain, satin and back stitch. I adore their elegant simplicity.
I'm busy with a muslin of some evening wear right now (sleeves are awkward) which I hope to show you on Monday. Have a great weekend!
