Some hand embroidery for a change. This was a kit Scottie gave to me shortly before she died. It is extremely complex, particularly as it is small (20cm x 15cm).
The mount was embroidered separately and both it and the central picture use a variety of different types of thread. I'm quite pleased with the finished product.

This scenery you've done looks so lovely& this thread adds such dimensional details too. It made me want to jump in& take a walk there. Thanks for sharing it. :~D

It's beautiful. I used to do a lot of hand work. Crewel, counted cross stitch.

I can see why this would have taken some time to stitch out. There is so much detail in it. Fabulous project!

It's gorgeous, both the piece and your work. Scottie surely did know who to entrust her treasures.
