Parrots and Chrysanthemums

This is what I have been working on recently, improving my machine embroidery technique and also using vintage fabrics.

You're Such A Gem...

I have been playing around with fun, whimsical ideas for a while like my safari embroideries and my swans, but I wanted to steer clear of animals. This is what I came up with!

Swanning around...

A little update on pieces that I have been working on.
I seem to be fascinated by a bird every season and this time I have been looking at Swans. I love the fact that you can make embroideries of the same animal completely different using lots of techniques or keeping it incredibly simple.

Floral Shadow

I have been playing with graphic floral shapes and light and shade. It's been really fun to balance colour, texture and shape to create fun, floral designs.

Fancy Flamingo

Sometimes you just have to have fun playing around with flamingos, pink and sparkles!
