I've begun a new project. It is a (much smaller) picture of St Mungo, Glasgow's Patron Saint. I drew a design fairly similar to my previous one, and then I lost the design, which on reflection, is a good thing. So I redrew it, and then after looking through some books on historical embroidery I modified that design a little more. And I've already begun embroidering!!!

The embroidery that inspired me to change my design (I was nervous about the circle, so this not-quite circle really appealed to me). |
My re-designed drawing. |
The beginning! |
Ooh, fabulous! I like the more almond shaped circle better too. I can't wait to see it finished. By the way, I just sent off a letter to you today! I hope you get it soon. :-)
ReplyDeleteIt's very nice...but something in me likes a circle :)
