I have six little notebooks and am putting a different little blackwork medallion on each. There's nothing glued to the reverse of the covers, so it is excellent incentive to get my Holbein stitch game on point.

This is my Hollandish outfit. It consists of:

1) a linen chemise with blackwork edge (worked in silk) to strengthen the neckline

2) a red linen underdress (self-supporting) with black skirt-guards. It's a little long, but it covers my sneakers. It also has a straight skirt (rather than a circular-cut) which means it's not as swishy as it could be...

3) a wool overdress lined with linen - this used far too little wool - but I found a beautiful-feeling offcut I wanted to use.

4) a linen apron

 

The hairstyle is pretty common in the hollandish paintings (Beuckelaer/Aertsen et al). I do it by plaiting my hair then winding a ribbon around it, then looping them around my head and tying the ribbon in a bow. In the Hollandish pics they didn't seem to have plaited hair, just rolled - but that's far too fiddly for me.

This is definitely blackwork - the stitches and filling patterns are used in blackwork but obviously you can use any colour floss...

 

Redwork on the other hand is just drawing an outline with the thread like my row of houses ...

A detail of the crosshatching attempts on the perspective sampler. They were a lot of fun to do but took FOREVER and ate up a ton of thread. To give you an idea--the middle left square uses both diagonals and the bottom two use the x and y axis and both diagonals. 18 ct aida and almost an inch square.

Blackwork pattern from Tams Creations

Here is the blackwork I've been working on since doing the 'Artist @ work' bit at the Nowa Nowa Nudes. Here you can see it at around 8, 17 and 28 hours...

Black silk thread, 32 count linen. Made from a square using a DMC pattern. However I didn't like their centre design so I designed a different one. My pattern is what you see here.

Stitched with variegated Caron Widflowers thread, Lavender Blue, for a birthday card.

Pattern from New Stitches No 197 magazine, counted stitch border added.

Framed in picnic for display here.
