My Embroidery X

Here are some of my hand embroidery samples. I experimented with a range of stitch to include line stitches, darning stitch, variations of back stitch, stem stitch, chain stitch, cross stitch, feather stitch, satin stitch, fly stitch, couching stitch and lastly detached stitch. Wow as you can see that's a lot of stitch and therefore I am pretty well practiced now. Although I am a printer I also enjoy hand embroidery and thoroughly enjoyed this project. I included sequins, dried flowers, ribbons, beads and raided my mums vintage button collection.
