It's a gorgeous design and I'm with you on the Gutermann thread. I realy like the effect the Gutermann gives but hate the fact it shreds, but I haven't found another metallic thread yet that gives me that effect so I put up with it too!
I'm an embroiderer and textile artist based in Sunderland, North East England. I mostly use traditional techniques, and particularly love goldwork, appliqué, and split stitch.
Most of my work is available to buy, and I also do commissions. Get in touch!
That's a very tangled up dog, isn't it!
ReplyDeleteIt'll get a lot more tangled up when the birds appear!

ReplyDeleteThe dog is coming along nicely, will the birds be in the same shade of gold?
ReplyDeleteThey will yes; this is just edging for the colours that'll be along later.
ReplyDeleteLove his toes!
