My own design, using a blackwork pattern and lots and lots of beads!

freehand embroidery in black cotton thread on natural linen. about 1.75 inches tall by 1.875 inches wide.

Found this piece that I started and nearly finished 1 1/2 years ago. It was a nice "get back to stitching after horrible arm pain" project.

Have attached the scarletworked collar to the shirt, finally. Shall use buttonhole stitch along the front opening of the shirt, but I'm debating whether a border around the bottom of the collar, too, would be nice.

Blackwork ATC stitched using a pattern found on the Blackwork Embroidery Archives. I liked this pattern because of the rosettes, but once it was stitched up the empty (white) space caught my attention even more (e.g. the 2 squarish-things in the center). The rosette by itself is in the purplework ATC.

my left sleeve; half sleeve of blackwork floral and color geometric is finished! [all work, Clark Kent, Slave to the Needle, Ballard] can't wait to start on the lower half...sometime next year...

My work-in-progress for the Gorey stitchalong! I chose the illustration Gorey did for Sarah Caudwell's murder mystery, 'Thus Was Adonis Murdered'. One of my favourite books, by one of my favourite authors, with cover art by one of my favourite illustrators... of course I had to embroider it!

For when I need something to sit and do that doesn'r require much previous planning....
