    Outside rings of circles are done, maybe. Now to begin working on filling the insides. This is fun! Thank you Alex! Oh, I also love red, the red in the photo is the painting above the sofa, my granddaughter painted it as part of her final exhibit for her Studio Art degree at Virginia Tech.

        Sadly, I think I'm just about done. I've been enjoying this so much, bringing back memories of embroidering with my mom and granny so many years ago. And I've never just done anything so free-wheeling. Love doing this and will keep doing more. Thanks for the change of pace!

            Hi Alex, I went into my silk stash and found this old crazy quilt block so decided to use it instead of making a new one for embroidery class.
            I've had surgery on my ankle and am non weight bearing so cant get around much so this has been the perfect thing for me to work on.
            Love the class. I'm calling it modern twist on something old.

                      I am recovering from hip surgery, so this has been the perfect project to do while I am a prisoner in my recliner! it has been so much fun, and I think my embroidery skills have definitely improved. My plan is to quilt it and make it a wall hanging. Alex, thanks so much for all you do - I am a big fan!

                        Judy! My mouth dropped open when I saw your posted photos. Your work is magnificent! I had dreamed up alot of the same type of scenes that you successfully made here that couldn’t work on mine because my fabric is too thick, or just the subject matter that I had restricted myself to. Great work, keep going, you motivate us all!

                      Project completed, placed some ghost circles in the background using my Brother circular attachment. On to my next one now as I have the bug.

                      Clever! I have a circular attachment for my Pfaff as well. Might try it!
