Slow Stitching Sunday
I am making some progress on this piece. I have added some beading and some silk ribbon embroidery. Stitching on this silk fabric is a delight. However, the silk is very light and has some stretch to it. I will have to be careful what I add to this. I am thinking I will keep the beading to a minimum and do mainly silk ribbon embroidery on this.

I love the colors of this one!
ReplyDeleteThat is an interesting piece. I like the silk ribbon flowers.
ReplyDeleteLovely progress on your Mandala, Angela. I always enlarge your photo to fill my screen, as there is always such lovely stitching to be seen. I am struck by the stitching skipping around the edges; 'tis pretty. I look forward to seeing more silk ribbon embroidery on this piece. Enjoy your week. I can see you in your 'studio' deciding upon which pretty to stitch your magic♡
ReplyDeleteIf you are afraid of stretching the fabric or that the beading will be too heavy for it, why don't you support the fabric from the back with a piece of thin fabric. I have used lawn, which is thin but tightly woven, to add strengthe to my wool work.
