Lovely work, well done. Yes I to love to embroider by hand. Have you tried stumpwork, ? it is 3 dimensional embroidery and has a lot of very interesting techniques.

It's beautiful! I've never lost my love of hand embroidery and always have a project going for when I am sitting next to my handsome hubby in the evening. Show off this lovely picture with pride!

Guess I am not the only machine embroiderer who also hand embroiders. Nice to know that you are not alone in this world :-)
Lovely work.

Just beautiful. A friend just came back to our sewing club and this is what she does. Hers is mostly flower scenes. I can't imagine all the fine stitches one would have to do. So realistic.
