I have now finished this piece after I found just the right trim while I was out at Minerva Crafts in Darwen last week. www.minervacrafts.com
The outer wooden box is 13"x11"
The embroidered piece is 11"x 6"
It is all hand embroidered except for the lace trim which I have machine stitched.
The materials are vintage cloth, french cloth, lace and cotton tape.
Stunning! Absolutely Stunning! :0) xxx

ReplyDeleteGORGEOUS! This looks great in the vintage box - very shabby chic.
ReplyDeleteLynn, this is just gorgeous! I love the shabby chic feel to this one...job well done.
ReplyDeleteLynn--I am catching up on your stitching art today, and I love this piece! Is that a combination blanket stitch with French knots around the edges? It is stunning--thanks for sharing your work. Hugs!
ReplyDeleteThanks Sandy yes it is a bit of both
