I also finished another small piece for my FiberWorks challenge. The word for February is CURVE. and I chose a closeup of an Escargot Begonia. They are a delicate garden plant and I buy two every spring and put them in a pretty pot inside. They look very good util October or November and then I chuck them.
Like the last two, this was printed on white fabric and then hand embroidered. I mostly used my beloved French knots and some outline stitch. I was not trying for an exact duplicate of the original, but just the general idea. I enjoyed working on it and now it's time for something else.
I am linking up with Off the Wall Friday.
