An embroidery for my folks’ 40th anniversary. Backing is improv crumb quilt, and once I found the bird for the appliqué I improvised the embroidery all around it.

I've hit the point in this #candlewicking #embroidery project where I've only got a hundred or so #FrenchKnots left (my fave stitch) and I am flying through. Soon, I will be done and have an ugly pillow for somewhere in my house!

Do you remember how I decided to #embroider #mosses in a 3-D way?
SLOWLY, I advance.
I found out that the secret lies in quite #natural = irregular #stitches and mixing #colours and #yarns. I'm using mainly #FrenchKnots (twined 1-5x), but also free #stitching where I later cut some of the threads open. Some glossy #yarn between imitates humid #moss.

Friday night and I am ready to savor the next couple of weeks of holiday rest and relaxation.

Preparations for my #embroidered #mossgarden which will be mounted into an open wooden box (from cheese). I marked the size for #stitching with a thread. For a stronger relief effect I sewed on thick #felt. Afterwards, these colours will be invisible. Now I #embroider #FrenchKnots with #gradientYarn, as irregularly as possible, for a more natural look. I want to combine different #yarns and structures. #mosstodon #moss #BiodiversityShrines #embroidery #NatureArt #ArtsAndCraft #improvisation
