Never too old, so the saying goes.
Recently I joined up to a Sue Stone online portrait stitch course. I’m not a great one for ‘process’ but the course is designed for practise on the basics. The next stage is for more individual detail. I’m really enjoying it.
Learning anything new can be a challenge. Last year I joined an embroidery group. Who could imagine there are so many stitches!
My husband had a saying, “You have to have the gear to do the job.” That was to justify every power tool and gadget he bought.
I’m getting there. I have books and and kit. Its quite exciting learning a new skill and I'm planning on using it in my art.
I encourage everyone to give it a go.
Embroidery is slow but satisfying. I have had to set a few goals though, otherwise it will not be finished until next year. The push is on to do a row a day. Progress is being made. My first sampler.
