Years ago I made some cushions & a quilt when I first learnt how to Candlewick... I love this peaceful form of embroidery... anyway the cushions were given away, the quilt I still have but it really needs new fabric placed around all the squares, will keep you posted on that when I get it done. Anyway the other day I came across a square I hadn't used so have decided that *perhaps just one more* cushion for the site!.......
A sweet Butterfly made in a cream cotton onto a white cotton fabric, perhaps for a little girl....
Cannot remember how many *French Knots* I made, quite a few believe me.....
At the four corners tiny flowers & leaves have been embroidered, hours & hours of work that I just soooooo enjoyed doing, perhaps should do some more......
Thanks for popping over to visit oh & sorry about the last photo it really isn't all that clear, when I have made the cushion up will take some piccies to show you....
Have a great day.....

Beautiful work, Lyn! You MUST have a great deal of patience. I look forward to seeing more!
Years ago I took a book from the library, intending to learn this beautiful art. Turned out I'm all thumbs. But yours is gorgeous.
