On Friday Mum and I went on a machine embroidery workshop to create a stitched herbaceous border. The tutor was Jan Tillett.We had such a great day.
I have never "painted" with my sewing machine before and this is my first effort created on the day.
I'm sorry I haven't got a picture of Mums border as it lovely - very dreamy.
We also learnt to make machine embroidered organza flowers - still making mine - and were shown how to stitch in space - again yet to finish my sample.
A truly informative and fun day.

This is so lovely. Calm and peaceful is how it makes me feel.
Ali,
This is lovely. Sounds like you had a really good day. Would be nice to see a picture of your Mum's embroidery too.
Alis this is beautiful! How big is it? Will you make it into something? I think it would look lovely on a tote bag or even the bag of an embellished jacket. Love the colors in this.
Alis. What a wonderful job you have made of this, it is so lovely.
WOW! How brilliant is that? Sounds like you had a fun day, and I am impressed with the results.
