Paula, #30 and 35 are DMC Broder Speciale. It's a matte non divisible thread. Same thread as is commonly used in Schwalm only thinner sizes.

Love your Iris I have stitch this design and loved doing it. Can't wait to see more Sue
Its amazing I love birds
I won't be going -- I find it a bit too much in the $$ department which is a shame since it's so close to me.
I am sure you will have a great time. Kingston is a nice city.

I think you will love taking a class with Barbara Kershaw. She's very knowledgeable about German and Italian Whitework. I saw her a couple of weeks ago - she sat in on our EAC Casalguidi correspondence class - she is actually the course author. It...

How interesting.
Hardanger and filet lacis use some filling stitches in common. The Swedish embroidery called naversom starts out by withdrawing threads and then doing pulled stitches ( faggot and reverse faggot) and darning stitch. The darning stitch is also used in Hardanger and filet. Everything mates with everything else and we end up with all these fascinating hybrids proliferating all over the place. One could never get bored.

The hummingbird box is beautiful. I think I see some Hardanger motifs in the Catherine Agnes sampler?

Nancy said… - Hi Pam. Thank you for your kind comments. Appreciation of a piece of embroidery by another stitcher is particularly meaningful to me as a fellow stitcher knows the work involved in producing the piece. --Nancy

Carol-Anne said… - Exhibition? Is it open to the public? Why don't you add it to the What's on Where group so every one knows about it (you will have to join that group and then add it to September).

I just love the Bargello card. Would you be able to chart it so it could be our next Bargello challenge?
If you don't feel comfortable doing that, email me (napapneedlepoint@gmail.com) and I can do it.
I just love it and would love to see what people did with different colors and threads on it.
Keep stitching,
Janet

I have just finished Bouquet from the Heart of Japan, and I'll try to post some photos to Flickr within the next few days (that is assuming I can work out how to do it!)

Iris said… - Hi Pam.
I have just recently joined the JE group here and am trying to catch up with everyone.
I have been doing japanese embroidery in Australia for about a year and a half now and am currently working on Phase IV Embroidery Sculpture.
I see that you are working on Bouquet - it is a beautiful piece.
Bouquet was my first piece and although I felt very daunted when I first started, I felt a real sense of accomplishment when it was finished - I was surprised I could actually do it.
I found it quite difficult as I had very little previous embroidery experience - there were parts I really struggled with, but just loved the challenge and the end result was worth it.
I will be taking some photos of my finished pieces soon, so hope these could help encourage you.
Cheers, Iris

- Hi Pam, I am also studying JE, I am now on Phase IV but still have Phase III to finish. I have not done Boquet, I did Hanayama for Phase I. I some times feel, I would like to do a practice piece before the phase piece so that the phase piece will be better, but that is daft, I know :-)

- If I don't conquer the bush clover - this might be a practice piece too. I do have Hanazume as well -- it's next up.
