The Accidental Embroiderer

Another one for the shows

As I mentioned, I’ve been putting together a collection of pieces to exhibit at our summer shows. I’ve learned that if you exhibit a work that’s stuck up on the wall in the middle of a lot of large, spectacular pieces, you really need to do your best to catch the attention of the audience. And bright colours do that well, so here’s a group of birds done in bright pinks and yellows. The swirling stitching should help make them stand out in a crowd.


Three for the show…

Now – I will have to take a short break from blogging, as I need to have a minor eye operation. It’s not in the least serious but it will rather cramp my style for a couple of weeks. But I’ll be back as soon as I can, and I hope with a nice surprise for readers!

  1. The birds will certainly draw attention, the color combination is “eye” catching. 😆
    Confident your eye surgery will be fine.

  2. What a vibrant composition! Indeed, this is definitely eye catching. Do you have plans to frame it? In which colour? By the way, thank you so much for all your informative posts and the freebies you have given us meanwhile. And last but not least, I hope you’ll experience an uncomplicate surgery, and get well soon!

  3. Hihi greetings from Luxembourg.These birds are really great!The colours lightning!Hope you`ll soon get better!!Big hug from an old girl, who was forced to go on holidays without embroiderymachine…but has to make sports an bike-tours!But the wine and food is excellent!

  4. Gorgeous! I love these colors together – think that dates from the 60s or 70s? Pink & orange were put together in wild prints for dresses about then. Adding the lavender, gold and yellow makes this such a sunny piece – a wall hanging would be amazing!
