3D Turtle Project

Stitch progress

The project for this term is this from Inspirations Magazine (I bought a digital copy of the pattern)

I am not sure if I am going to frame mine (like in the image above) or do something different.

The thread painting is slow but very satisfying.

Blackwork Butterfly

I subscribe to the Inspirations magazine and in issue 52 they had this blackwork butterfly by Tanja Berlin.

I like it and I would like to try to replicate it with machine embroidery (my hand embroidery is hopeless …).

Here’s part of a wing that I’ve been working on in Thred.

It still needs a bit of work and it will be quite a drawn out process (not as long as doing it by hand though)

And another wing …

I’ve also changed the angle of the fill slightly.
