As I'm nearing completion of the embroidered part of
Wild Child, I'm contemplating what to work on next. I have two other large pieces to finish (
Summer of Love Challenge and
Antique Society Silk Violets), but I need to do some relaxing stitching for a bit. I think I'm going to find a small thread painting project in order to give my brain a rest.
One of my favourite sources for easy, but gratifying shaded embroidery projects is Trish Burr's book
Needle Painting Embroidery: Fresh Ideas for Beginners. While it's a wonderful book for beginners, there's enough detail to interest more advanced needlepainters.
Several years ago, I embroidered
Wild Pansy.
