Finished Pieces of Work

Shelagh has just finished her thread catcher and has put it to good use already. She was making little felt flowers to brighten up a tree decoration in her porch and collected the little cut offs in the thread catcher.

Your choice of fabric is very colourful and will make the thread catcher easy to find when needed.

Thank you Shelagh it is lovely and useful.

Congratulations to Ann Ellis for winning the cup for Best overall Exhibit in the Handicrafts Section and the plate for The Best in Show at Cartmel Show. Her amazing entry of an embroidered wall hanging is below.

Ann has embroidered her hanging in a limited palette and that makes it especially attractive to the eye. Each " little picture" is a delight and each time you look you see more detail.

Just one look at the beautifully embroidered hanging above and you can see why it won so many accolades. Thank you Ann for sharing it with us.

 Janet has finished her pretty rya bee by embroidering the legs and wings as the bee visits the heather made with detached chain stitch alternating the stem.

Thank you Janet ,it is very pretty and delightfully stitched.

Tanya has finished a beautiful orange rya bee by embroidering legs and gold wings with tiny gold beads. The bee is hovering over a neatly embroidered satin stitched shaded flower.

Thank you Tanya for your beautiful embroidery.
