“TIS DONE NOW”
Looking round my studio room (so called by my lovely hubby) My eyes fell up on some pieces I stitched together a few years ago when I did an online course with embroiderer Karen Ruane.
and I’ve decided to work back into them by adding words and I’m going to attach them to hangers. The little flowery thing isn’t really a hanger it was something I found for a £1 in the garden centre and rather liked the look of.
Once the pieces are finished and on the wall I’ll show you a picture. This is the first piece of three. All done from imagination and random pieces of vintage cloth and lace.
So dear friends that’s where you will find me today as my 16 year old VW Beetle is having her repairs done to get her through the MOT. Looking at the weather though I’m going to take advantage of a nice walk on the moors as well.
Hope you all have a happy creative week
Lynn xx

and a beautiful piece it is too Lynn, I love cosy evenings spent hand stitching. I have a few little makes on the go all the time. Your *Studio* must be so inspiring, I love how you reworked and added to an older design. It's knowing when to stop for me!! Happy WoywW Hugs Tracey #3

Good luck, Frida!!
ReplyDeleteThey're so lovely, it must be so relaxing to sit and slowly stitch in the gorgeous Autumnal sunshine in your studio room.
Back to leaf raking for me after I've sorted the stock out for Sunday's fair. It's blooming endless! enjoy your walk! x
Absolutely everything is pretty in your home, desk, wall and Moors.

How lovely to catch up with you on WOYWW - I'm such a sporadic blogger nowadays! I love your embroidery hoop piece - it's so pretty and the colours are delightful. Your embroideries are gorgeous and I have to echo Sandra when I say your home and your surrounding scenery is just so lovely.

A walk on the Moors....I have never had the ability to say that! I don't know if we have anything to compare here in the Southern US. It does sound so romantic though! Happy WOYWW!

ReplyDeleteI'm late, I'm late for a very important date.....but I'm here now catching up with a few of my fav blogs. My day started off early when Phoebe and Lulu arrived for a day of crafty fun with me whilst their brother Steve, their Mum and Grandad went to watch Steve play in a football tournament.....if you want to see more then I will share pics on my Friday smiles [cos there were lots of those].
ReplyDeleteGorgeous embroidery pieces this week Lynn.

Beautiful work, Lynn. The hoop is lovely and like that 'tis done now'. The corn of your studio is so very interesting - you know how to create a vignette to draw the eye. Hope you enjoyed your walk on the moor. Elizabeth x #28
ReplyDeleteKeeping my fingers crossed for Frida, the poor girl! Had to smile at the words "tis done now". Well, it couldn't have been more apt. I love how you've added words and that £ 1 flower thingy from the garden centre to that lovely, lacy piece. I hope you enjoyed your walk on the moors. So envious you've got that on your doorstep! xxx
ReplyDeleteGorgeous work Lynn. I have to say I love your cabinet with the drawers not only is it useful but looks beautiful too. Wishing you a very happy woyww and a lovely creative week, Angela x17x
ReplyDeleteWhat a talented lady you are well done, love the idea of going back and adding things,

Wishing you a very happy WOYWW for yesterday. Your embroidery projects are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteLovely to see the embroidery finished from last week. That must be a record - well, would be for me! Love the other embroidery you are showing us and your wall of beauty is a sight to behold.

Lynn I love your embroidery. When I see such beauty, it makes me want to pick up a needle and embroid something. I have bought supplies so many times with the greatest of intentions and then push it aside. Have a blessed weekend and thanks for the visit.

Oh the colours in that embroidery work so beautifully together - it's such a delicate, pretty thing you've made! I love the idea of custom dying threads - it's hard to find just the right shades in mass-produced products sometimes. I was sorely tempted to experiment with this idea after I saw your last post - now I've seen the finished project I'm definitely going to have to give it a go! Thank you for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThis is a lovely piece Lynn - I didn't realise you had done one of Karen's courses? I've done loads. We must compare notes one day, next time we meet at Anne's. Xx Barbara @superstitcher on IG.
