Paper Embroidery

I am enjoying paper embroidery – I have all sorts of plans. The above is a quote by Jane Austen.

I used a paper stitch font from Flourishing Fibers, DMC cotton (colour 666) on water colour paper.

I am using my new Golden Forge scissors to hold the page down. I love these scissors, by using these to trim the ends of threads I can thread any needle (including size 12s)

Finished Book Mark

I finished the paper book mark. The pattern is from here.

I do like embroidering on paper.

Paper Book Mark embroidery

I have been experimenting with my Cricut to make perforated card for stitching. I found the svg file at Wild Olive.

Here I am doing a bit of stitching on it.

I was thinking, you’re not limited to cross stitch, I could put the holes anywhere.

Paper Embroidery

I have been intrigued by paper embroidery (this one is from Flourishing Fibers).

I printed the design, laid it on top of my circle and used an awl to make the holes.

I used Pearl cotton (number 8) instead of stranded floss.
