    Alex’s embroidery class

    Karen, your embroidery project is beautiful. Do you or any of the others on this link have any ideas for how we will be finishing these embroidery pieces? I am sending my latest photos of my project. Mine looks so basic compared to others on this site. But I am having fun.

          Alex,
          Thanks for the embroidery lessons. You have opened up a whole new world for me. Now I can stay seated at night and watch TV with my husband without popping up and down. It is hard for me to sit still. I have a ways to go, just thought I would show what I have done so far.

            I found a double-eyed embroidery needle which was brilliant for the split stitch (inner ring of largest circle). Next time I'll have a better contrast between my two threads. Thanks for the wonderful inspiration from Alex and the rest of the group.

              I’m still working on this…I love the process and I’m enjoying the neutrals. I make a lot of challah covers ( which this will become) but my husband has been watching me work on this while we sit and watch tv together at night and he said, “ this is different from your other work.”

                  This was so meditative and just plain fun.

                Can someone remind me what backing was used on the silk?
