Silk ribbon embroidery


This last few evenings I decided to have a change from quilting so I have been doing silk ribbon embroidery .this picture will make a needle case for myself ,
The following little needlecase will be going off to my friend in Australia , she left these shores many years ago and settled easily into her new land .
I,m still without my new router, still have the ethernet cable trailing the floor. I,t makes me nervous if someone rang the doorbell I would most likely trip over the cable and have the lot on the floor but I did want to keep in touch and let you see what I was doing .
I shall browse around the blogs and then disappear again for a few days . I am now promised my router for the 17th November, so see you then .
Bye xx

What a delightful needle case. I have never really given ribbon embroidery a go but looking at the stunning results you get I may try again.
Well done
