I embarked on a journey of embroidering on spheres with flowers. The process involved felting, stitching and sewing. The daisy is a universal symbol of happiness, as well as a symbol of life, and that has been my beginning. As a visual artist and florist I love the intricate beauty of flowers and the profound connection they offer to the cycle of life.
There is more to create, a sanctuary where happiness can bloom.
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.
