needle book

Worked on the embroidery on the needle book today, It was a busy run around and wait place type day so I was able to get a lot of embroidery done. Nice thing is my husband will be home for the next two weeks- he arrives tomorrow morning. Before being shipped off to Idaho. So that will give me two weeks to start tackling the big projects, I hope.

Pics of progress



At 10 hours of work total almost done laying the gold thread



starting the split stitch with the dark gold colored silk

So far 15 hours of work on the embroidery, feeling much better with the gold work will try more when I start the next element- for a sort of Or Nue type look using colored thread to couch down the thread
