Another sample!
Just finished this tonight in time for week 3's lesson! This has taken a few nights of dedicated stitching. The design topic this week was 'point' and how stitches can be used as points and focal points. I have really enjoyed this sample as I love woven wheels and french knots - shame about the blurry picture. I can't work out if it's my technique or the camera is on the blink but pictures seem to be worse than when I first got it. Also the colours aren't quite right. The background fabric is a dusky pink kunin felt but it looks slightly orange in the picture.
Well off to bed soon and then I'll start reading lesson 3 tomorrow.
Very excited at the moment as it's my birthday on Sunday and have lots of nice things planned for the weekend and nice presents to look forward to! I'm like a child (despite being about to turn 30) and I am all fidgety and can't sleep. Wait until Christmas - I get so excited I make myself ill!

Very nice! I haven't tried the wheels, yet, but they look like fun! Happy Birthday!

Regardless of any camera trouble, this sampler still communicates well. Very inspiring!

This is really lovely. Great movement
Check your camera isn't on the close up setting ( the picture of a little flower ) and try taking the photo further away, but cropping and zooming in to get a bigger pic for your blog.

This is really nice! Like the feeling of movement, quite different to lines and bands. What a good demonstration of Sharons 'points'!

This is beautiful, Leanne. I saw it on Sharon's blog but I don't really do hand stitching but if I see much more of this I might well...
