Today, my friend Hope and I drove to The Quilt Shop of Deland to take a Silk Ribbon Embroidery class. We had a wonderful teacher in Cheryl and one other student, Heidi. Here is a picture of the sample. It's a little blurry as I forgot to take my camera and had to use my cell phone.
This was a great class, and I learned a lot. It has been a while since I had used some of those embroidery stitches. I enjoyed learning a new technique that will allow me to take some projects on the go.
Here is mine in progress. I hope I do not forget everything Cheryl taught us now that I am home and sewing on my own. This reminds me of a crewel embroidery picture my mom had made when I was a child. It brings back such wonderful memories.
I am sorry that one of our many hurricanes took the crewel embroidery picture that you referenced.
