And now after a week I know why I made this design: Have a look at the photo of a was-once-a-tulip
must have been this flower which I saw several days withering
Don't ask me what this could be - nothing at all - a fruit maybe. But in fact it needs not to be anything but a design which I made first on paper. Couching is good for round shapes and difficult threads can be stitched down by this method.
This is so pretty Anneliese. I love the dainty little single strand fly stitches!! You are indeed correct - couching has so many great uses. Love this, and the shades of green coming out in it. Cheers.
Lovely stitching and lovely shapes , Anneliese. They could be fruits. Whatever they are, the couching is lovely. I love doing it by hand and by machine.
This is so pretty - I love seeing your stitch projects!

ReplyDeleteI really like your colours. I like couching for the same reason - you can use difficult threads and yarns.
ReplyDeletei like your interwoven shapes Anneliese. Also the colours.
ReplyDeleteAnneliese, No matter what it is the design lines are very effective and you couching is gorgeous. Good work.
