A Utah Transit Authority FrontRunner commute passes the skeletal remains of the Utah Ore Sampling Co. building in Murray, Utah on June 19, 2018. The structure was built between the Union Pacific and Denver & Rio Grande Western railroads in 1925. UtahRails.net has an excellent history of the structure and its purpose here: utahrails.net/mining/utah-ore-sampling.php

My sampler from lesson 2. The spokes are done with crewel wool. The fly stitches and chain stitches are done with wool, pearl #5 and 6 strands of floss. The french knots are done with wool. I also added seed beads and sequins.
I finished my first embroidery project. My 22 month old daughter periodically checked in on the progress, telling me, "See Circles!"
I think I like embroidery, but what do I do with this?
Yeah it's a bit late, but it's her Christening today, so it's a Christening present.
This is probably the most fun I've had to date with a sampler. Thanks to the lovelies at www.spritestitch.com for Yoshi, Peach and the stars.
It's taking a while, but I've made a bit of progress! My 'teach myself embroidery' sampler is proving very therapeutic. Although no-one seems to want to sit next to me when I'm sewing on the tram. ??

I made this stitch sampler from the project/pattern in SS Embroidered Effects .... was really a lot of fun to make. I pretty much stuck to the colors used in the book.
This is the first image i've done any kinda work on in a series I will be continuing, using my lovely friends Jake and Taylor as models. I'm wanting to go for a sort of 50's era feel. I'm really excited to keep working on it!
I made a frame for it using a really neat old miter saw. I'm thinking of making a pattern for it, but hmm...

This sampler was given to me by an old friend of many years on a milestone birthday. It's hanging over my desk and it makes me smile every time I read it. I am lucky to have some wonderful friends.
Here it is now, folks. All crumpled and in need of a wash, still smelling of woodsmoke from when I sat and stitched by the communal fire at Uncivilisation. I'm certainly getting better at stuff, and I'm running out of space! Here's the last photo of it: www.flickr.com/photos/35345383@N05/5926168215/ bit bigger now, eh?
