Letter C in Brazilian dimensional embroidery progress

Flowers for C are finished. This is how it is looking. I still didn’t iron it… J A humming bird may find way to my C in coming days.

These are fuchsia I tried to replicate with dimensional embroidery.

These are morning glories.

These are the Iris

The hydrangeas

The Columbine flower, I’m awed by natural shape and petals this flower. This is the result of my struggle to create it. I used needle weaving and Cast on stitches. Stem stitch and a French knot are used for the rear part of the petals.

I have not seen these flowers in real life. Only sees them in Google images. I’m fascinated by them. I have MSc exams scheduled in January. Therefore not much embroidery going on. Climate is cool this time of the year for Sri Lanka. But this year it is extra cool. Most of the flowers are enjoying the climate. I’ll post flowers from my home garden soon.

An adventure trip

My friends coming home these days from abroad and local friends get leaves. So we hangout together a lot. Between these hangouts we go on trips. Mostly adventurous. This time we went to explore a hill called Kuragala and a water fall called Duliella in Sinhala. These are some images we took while at it. A good place to be adventurous. We had so much fun and less food ;) So not much stitching going on, but working on my peacock embroider.

This is the Dhuliella falls. It falls in to a stone basin filled from deep water and creates such mist, so called Dhuliella( means waterfall with mist). Since this is rainy season it is falling full. Just stunning.

This image is a part of the stunning view from the Kuragala hill. This shows a local agricultural village. Paddy fields are all set to plant crop. 

Cross stitched bear with balloons

This is a project I finished about 3 years back. A child like cross stitch pattern. I loved it at first sight. So I had to create it. I had it as a image of a finished bear like this. I counted crosses from that image and made the pattern. It was crazy thing to do but I wanted to stitch it. So here it is hanging from my bedroom wall at my parental home.
