New Hand embroidery THREAD please join in

[Bodgeitandscarper]

I did some hand embroidery once, mainly cos I loved the colours.  It was done from a chart in Prima magazine if I remember rightly, possibly in the late 80s or early 90s.  Hard to get a photo as it's high up on the wall and measures 24" x 9".  Took me about a year to do.

Wow! That is a labour of love!  I agree with you about the colours.

That is super @Bodgeitandscarper . I can see why the colours attracted you, they are lovely together. Well done, a labour of love indeed.

I thought I would add this here, it is one of the last cross stitch I did so would be around 30 years old!  I am only putting it here as I was having a chuckle to myself that 30 years on I am still doing unicorn embroidery

I admire your patience with all those tiny beads.
Do you get naked biros from beading suppliers to make jackets for?

[Celia]

@Ploshkin yes, I bought them a long time ago
