The following series of 3 was me working on stitching to see what it could do for my art.
Above:
I did some embroidery, on the pink/white piece, which I like the look of. I played with text and capturing threads under a sheer fabric (I was too heavy handed with the threads). I do use sheer fabrics & netting on occasion for the ethereal effect.
On the blue panel the stitching looks too messy but I love the danglies hanging from the lace. I am a big fan of dangles and you see it in a lot of my work. Again, the sheer over the image, blurs, giving it a surreal effect.
On the final panel, I love the stitching on the right. A hint of yellow/cream with the white, that’s my usual color palette! I just used zig-zag and straight stitches crossing over each other.
