Megan, I got a similar message on a blog that I used to follow. I was able to contact the blog owner and request an invite. She told me that because she had not posted to her blog for some time she was given the option to either discontinue the bl...

You are right. The sign in page would not recognize my password and when I tried to retrieve it, the protocol required I answer like a newbee.
Confused.

Many thanks for your kind comments. I didn 't I know I was capable !! Just had a go after seeing an exhibition in New Brunswick, Canada. Cannot take all the credi t as I borrowed the idea from the originals which I loved so much. It was on my birthday also and so I was in seventh heaven. Also another exhibition at the same time of portaits...very loosely painted. Fabulous !

Hi Carol-Anne

Thankyou so much for your positive comments. This is my first piece so it is a bit of a path of discovery. I thought I might find it boring but it is fact just the opposite. I am really enjoying it! It is great to get constructive ffedback from someone who is very experienced and extremely capable in gold couching. I look forward to any other feedback on my progress.

The cornflowers are my own design as well.

Good Morning
I finished my first thimble last night. I think I will do another today. It was fun to watch the pattern appear.
I posted a picture (somewhere).
Thanks for the help.

Thanks, Carol-Anne, it was a more difficult surgery than anticipated but he's making great progress. For Phase IX I'm doing Konbuin-no-fukusa, the Sake Box. Haven't decided whether to do the full design or the smaller one with the ladle. I'll need to finish it by September, starting in January, so I may go with the smaller one just for safety!
By the way, my teacher, Tonie Evans, helped with the design for Conception and she has her piece frame and it's gorgeous!

I am delighted to join the Japanese embroidery gruop. I am working on Conception at the moment. When I first saw it I thought it looked relatively simple but I have changed my mind. To look its best every stitch ha s to be at exactly the right angle. I have lost count how often I have had ti reverse stitch.
