posting for Macro Mondays: stitch

HSS....

HMM......... this is my choice- a colorful possibility for the Macro Mondays group’s theme of circles for 4/19.

the size and context mosaic is in the first comment box.

this portion measures 1 and 3/4th inches at its widest/tallest

I am surrounded by natural leaves at home in my house and garden, but had trouble finding any man-made ones! I'm hoping that this bit of embroidery by my Aunty Gertie many years ago will do, even though it's "woman-made" - HSoS!

Inspired by soulemama's amazing quilt here! Blogged here!

Needlework is becoming a lost art...

Appliqued felt and cotton fabrics. Three from a series I am working on.

Each circle is about 5.5" (14cm) diameter.

5 cm high / Diameter 5 cm

Front cover of my journal for this year.

Ricamato d'autunno

Niqui has been practicing more hand embroidery, this time Spider-Web stitch with Lazy Daisy stitch surround interspersed with French Knots ..

The whole piece is only 3cm across so there's some fine stitching in there ..

(of cloth) decorated with patterns sewn on with thread.

such as "an embroidered handkerchief"

Belgium Sunsets

Yangshuo China - Silk Embroidered Art

Sharing some art, one of my first hand sewn faces and likely one of my favourite... from my own drawing

A lady performing needlework in Den Gamle By in Aarhus, Denmark

I saw this idea somewhere... And then I saw it a few other places. Now I can't remember where it originated (if I ever knew).

had I the heaven's embroidered cloths

enwrought with golden and silver light

the blue and the dim and the dark cloths

of night and light and the half light

I would spread the cloths under your feet:

but I, being poor, have only my dreams

I have spread my dreams under your feet ;

tread softly because you tread on my dreams.

Macro Mondays theme: string

Submitted for the Macro Monday theme of "Stitch"

This is the club crest for the team that I follow, Newcastle United Football Club, and the embroidered stitch is far more appealing than the transfers they now use on club shirts. Howay the Lads and HMM
