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
