Embroidery on knit and crochet in a few easy steps
Do you know the sound of embroidery? That whisper of the needle and thread passing through the fabric and that feels so delightful to the ears. When the fabric is taut in the hoop—or like in this case when you use cardboard—the thread or the needle will create a subtle purring that can be mesmerizin
Hello, hello! It's me... Robin... your absent blogger. I'm back and boy, have I missed you! Where has the time gone? Well, for me, I've been here all the time; in front of the computer writing stitch guides and traveling to/teaching at wonderful Needlepoint stores across this country. Often when I'm under deadlines (translation the plane is leaving in ____ days) I tend to hunker down and forgo life's responsibilities including blogging. Facebook has been my go-to platform for updates. But, seriously, absent for almost 2 years?!! I apologize. So... I'm back. The July 4th holiday is upon us. BBQ, picnics, family reunions, potato salad... fond memories! I've also had the pleasure of writing several July 4th/Americana themed stitch guides.

It's called "God Bless America" by Cooper Oaks Design (artist, Melissa McLeod • MML 921). God Bless America Cooper Oaks Design • artist, Melissa McLeod MML 921 This is for my next Canvas Enhancement class in September 2017... at North Shore Needleworks in the Chicago area. This will be my first time teaching there and I am looking forward to meeting everyone. I will be sure to bring you along with me on my journey. As I've mentioned before, all of my stitch guides are available from me. Just email me your request and I will get back with you the details. You can reach me at [email protected]. Well, that's all for now. Have a safe and enjoyable July 4th holiday. Hope you get to do some stitching. Here's a Stars chart for you. I'm a giver! 😊 Until the next time... HUGS, Robin

Sunday morning I played around with new stones thinking they were going to be grey but perhaps because it is the bleak mid-winter the stones turned a warmer colour. This piece is inspired by Mark's paintings of stones disappearing under water. He is brilliant at that. For both of us scenes like this bring up whisperings of summers spent on beautiful Georgean Bay. For those of you in Toronto don't forget The Artist Project at the Better Living Centre February 21-14, 2019 Mark Berens will be at Booth 506. Strips of plant dyed fabrics soon to become rocks. By Sunday evening I was happily couching away. I have based the background onto an old blanket and it is like stitching butter. The one thing about this kind of stitching is it allows for mind wandering and as I stitched these delicious rusts and browns my mind whispered memories of my beautiful Rusty Pups They are dearly missed As are their antics and adventures. And then as I prepared this post A photo demanded to be noticed So much like my new stones. I have a teacher who always says the piece you start next should always be informed by the last piece you did. Perhaps this means my next piece will have to be seaweed in the colours of my Georgean Bay stones. But I already have soooo many new beginnings just started! But my mind is flowing with ideas on how to go about a seaweed piece. It is so easy to have many ideas isn't it The days just aren't long enough for their execution! I hope you have a day rich in creative ideas.

Underneath each of artist Ulla Stina Wikander‘s needlepoint objects is a real, once-functioning appliance, accessory, or tool. Wikander (previously) tends to select objects with traditional associations to domestic life, like sewing machines, ironing boards, and hair dryers. The artist, who is based in Sweden, combines the retired objects with historical cross-stitch patterns, which she also collects. Each piece is finished with colorful rick-rack detailing to help define the edges and describe the original shape. More
