Here’s the thing I worked on last week:
As I already mentioned, I took the Freestyle Embroidery class from Teresa McFayden. Before her class, I only knew how to do a backstitch and I’d done a few french knots. After having done Rebecca’s hearts week, I wanted more so this workshop came at the perfect time.
Here’s the finished sampler:
The stitching I did on the first week ended up in the WIL book I made so here’s that one:
I then redid some of the things on the big sampler but not all of them. Here are some details:

I stitched this happy yellow fabric on the back.
Here’s another look at the final product:
I absolutely loved doing this workshop. Even though my arm is still hurting.
Take a break! Please! 🙂 It’s wearing me out reading your blog….time for a spa day:)
Lol. I hate spas. This is my spa I think. Doing these things 🙂
This is awesome Karen, You’ve inspired me to learn something new too. I really like this – maybe I’ll give it a try. Yes I think so. Was it hard to learn? Was the class easy to follow? Thanks in advance.

It really was easy Lisa. I am so not talented in these things. French knot was the only hard one for me which I had done a bit before the class for my art for Andee. She has videos for each stitch and they are easy to follow in my opinion. I really enjoyed it and will do another sampler soon 🙂 If you do end up taking it, let me know how you like it! 🙂
The sampler is gorgeous!! Another awesome talent.
thank you 🙂 it’s so great to learn new things. discover new worlds 🙂
