Nicely done...it has that hand stitched look of crewel embroidery...good job! What needle did you use and did you do anything special to the tension (upper and/or bobbin) to get it to sew out?

it is lovely, can I ask if this is done with the wool thread from Madeira? I have a box full of it and not been able to use it. If you did use this what needle did you use??Thanks

just googled it; yes, it is a brand name for the finely spun wool thread you know as madeira.

It's a woollen thread, quite a bit thicker (12wt) than the usual 40wt embroidery thread. So the design has to be made for the thicker thread (lower density, greater stitch length) and it needs a needle with a large eye. Madeira has some needles for Burmilana and other decorative threads.

Burmilana is perfect for this design.
