Jane your work is beautiful... i am curious how the japanese embroidery piece looks from the back side.. does it look like satin stitch from backside..
Dear Jane
I am a slow stitcher and I finished the Drooping Cherry in 10 days and will be framing up the other one this week to start. They are such fun to do and so beautiful.
Hi Jane,
At the Harrogate show I visited Midori's section. She displayed an embroided Kimono with a Christmas theme. Maybe oneday I would be able to do something similar and wear it. Do you recommend the book you mentioned in your last mail?
If so,I might get it when I go back to Japan next year.If you need something from Japan,write it down and I will put it on my shopping list.
I have not done recently stitching because three are so many other things I want to do in my spare time... We have 3cats.Black cat,Noah is the one who walk with me in summer.This morning we found Noah covred mud and one of his eyes was scrached.
Hope there is nothing serious. Michiko
