I needed something soft and pastel to round
off my day. A saturday workingday in a shop
can be pretty boisterous, so I often have to brace
myself not to flip :-)
I love silence, and i sometimes wonder whether
it would be better for me to go back to the country-
side one day.
OK,
the needlework i posted here dates from last
summer; i was asked by a fashion student to
embroider some beads, you can see they are very
tiny, i added some confetti as a reference.
The colors were not chosen by myself, but she
gave me a print of an old patch-work to base on.
It was an enchanting colormatch; basically soft oranges,
lilas and greys, creams, some intense reds, anyway,
the little bedspread was a real treasure.
Hope you will enjoy these colors too.
Have a nice weekend everybody :-)
I like it Renilde. Have a nce weeend you too.

ReplyDeletewhen i was a little girl, very long time ago, my mother was embroidering an eastern tablecloth. i had the honor of selecting the colors for the tiny eastern eggs on it.
i still have it.
i still remember.
your soft and quiet beads reminded me of that- thanks!
I love the colours! I actually wanted to make a quilt for some twins in that sort of colour scheme! The father didn't want something overly girly, I don't think it is overly girly, but just enough girl in it!
ReplyDeleteYour little dots are so precise! I love looking at it!
beautiful stitches. i sometimes think id like to live in the country too. i like the quiet, fresh air, and nature all being close. but the city is nice sometimes too, visiting galleries, cafes etc. i guess we have to compromise somewhere :)
ReplyDeleteenchanting is a lovely word to describe your work:) somehow, i thought you did live in the country already! you seem to live the life of country rhythm....
ReplyDeleteYou seem to be a very patient person. How we envy you. We could both need more of that. When we start a project we already dream of the next.
ReplyDeleteWow! It looks gorgeous! The fashion student must have been very happy with the result!
ReplyDeleteI love the colour combination of the embroidery. And I LOVED your thimble story. You have a gift for making simple things lovely and quirky and full of wonder.
ReplyDeleteoooh I do love this!
ReplyDeleteI like the colors, especially the variegated ones. They're all so pretty!
