drawing with threads.

black thread on cream linen.
 
 
inspired by wild flowers,

 
fossils,

 
and feathers.

 
panic has set in over prepartions for the Alnmouth Arts Festival next weekend, if you want me I'll be buried under a pile of threads somewhere.........

    Adore these, just the kind of stitching I love! Do you use a machine? Really lovely. X

    These are fantastic T, I could see these as pieces of art in those hanging embroidery frames, or as a panel on a rustic tote bag. They must take ages to do. Definitely going to be a sell out at the festival! J x

    These are GORGEOUS, Tess! Especially love the feathers and the wild flower at the top. Are you doing this "thread drawing" by machine? Look forward to seeing more of what you do with these! ((HUGS))
