Happy New Year

Coming in to Christmas nothing got done on the embroidery front, not because of an endless round of party's, but because we all had the sickness bugs that were, and still are, going round. But before that, and just using the time during the day when the kids are asleep, I started the stump work kit, below is the flower half done, there is still the trumpet to do, I have really enjoyed doing it, and its been very quick to do so far, I did think that the wire that came with the kit was very thick, i used it anyway, but for a item that does not need any shaping or support, you could have use a slimmer wire and the the edge could of been much smaller. The background fabric that came with the kit is horrid, and i will use some silk backed with calico.
