I am going to log about an embroidery
project which I have finished long ago. This image was on a ladies paper and
took my attention at once. That was done with ribbons and DMC thread. At that
time I had no experience on ribbon embroidery so I turned to Anchor thread
which I had with me. This is the finished look after framed.
Apologies for blurred and bad
lighted pictures.
This is a close shot of the lady.
The skirt was done using chain stitch in three different shades of purple. And the
sleeve and blouse is stitched using long and short stitch, not perfect of
course. All the flowers are French knots. At that time I didn’t know how to do French
knots. I experimented with what I knew about French knots and came up with a working
version. It didn’t work perfectly all the times.
This is the flowered head. Hair is
long and short stitch. I used single stitch for eye lashes with single strand
of black thread.
