New flower whith a little bud




I started with a new embroidery. This flower is also inspired of a part of Gustav II Adolfs bride groom costume. At the time, the fabric was embroidered in Germany on wool and tailored in Sweden. The fabric was deep violette but I wanted something brighter and here I made it on linen. I choose a goldish green color.

Time fly....

I have had so many duties during the last month so there have been no time to spend here in my embroidery retreat.
The small embroidery on velvet i worked on the last time i was blogging is almost completed. Its just a small sample but I like to do something out of it. I love the way the light come through the glass beads och how the grey velvet absore all light,
