The stitching is done!
I’m not the best embroiderer you ever saw, but I like it!
I still need to wash and block, and decide what to do. Make a pillow? Frame it?
I’m off on a little trip to get my Grandma fix. The only projects I’ll have going are hugs…lots of ’em!

What do you mean “not the best embroiderer you ever saw.” Are you crazy Laura? This is GORGEOUS! Beautifully executed stitches, wonderful use of color – an heirloom for sure! I have a book on Brazilian embroidery but have never done any – your work is inspiring.

Thank you so much Carol! Unfortunately, it is not finished…not framed, or turned into a pillow, or…? I really need to figure out what I want to do with it.

Neither B.K.; I bought the stamped linen several years ago when I was attending a class. I don’t know who the designer is.

Found a kit by searching “brazilian embroidery Dresden plate”. I like you color choices better than those illustrated with the kit. There is also another image online of the same pattern on black. Thanks so much for the inspiration!
