I done this needlepoint few years ago.I done the background in wool and decided to do the birds in embroidery threads to give it another look. At the time one had to use wool,but it has changed now,one can use whatever one wants.
Your design and stitching are beautiful. Imagine the vibrant colors stitched in silk. The wool you have used is lovely and as you said was what you had to work with at the time. If you should decide to stitch a smaller version using silks at some point in the future, it will be absolutely stunning!
I have always had a love of the computer and had a desire to have a blog. With the help of my daughter, that has now become a reality.
I am french by birth, and taught myself English at a young age - please forgive my sometimes incorrect grammar.
I am a mother of four children, eight grandchildren and three great grandchildren.
I like to create all kinds of different things and am constantly working on something. I do everything from needlepoint, embroider, and cross stitch, to painting, drawing and writing.
I love to learn and enjoy the challenge of learning a new craft or task on the computer.
Sometimes, changes are a good thing!!!
