Monday, January 25, 2010. Patterns of the Orient. This is a glorious, though challenging, piece from Tony Minieri. It's a study in Chinese, Japanese and Korean textiles. Each area represents a different pattern used in contemporary and ancie. Nt fabrics. I think I'm enjoying it . some days it's way over my head. Posted by Nimble Thimble. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Bits and pieces of my crazy life. Saturday, January 30, 2010. ANYWAY - this is supposed to be a stitching blog. So, let's talk stitching! The first picture is the top left corner of the canvas. I've done the green curly que thingy but have not finished the white section yet. The picture above gives you a close up look at the border that Ruth had us do on the entire canvas. It took forever for me to get it all done due to the lack of time to stitch but I love the results. Happy snowy stitchy Saturday.

SOTM, Nov 2011 | Pins and Needles
https://pinsneedles.wordpress.com/2011/11/18/sotm-nov-2011
A look at my creations with pins and needles. November 18, 2011. SOTM, Nov 2011. All the diamonds are one – so where will the variegated thread and the metallic blending filament be used in December? Filling the triangles that formed? Or perhaps the two that have ‘cut-out’ bits in them should be the centre 2, with the solid star at the bottom? In the end I decided to leave it as is. It will be interesting to see what December has us do to finish it all off. Laquo; It’s a mystery. Mystery, week 2. Notify ...

Needlepoint Box | Pins and Needles
https://pinsneedles.wordpress.com/needlepoint-box
A look at my creations with pins and needles. Here is a step-by-step to make a box from scratch, covered in your own embroidery. It may look long-winded, but is really very easy, and you will end up with something truly personal. The stitching on this box is based on Jean Hilton’s Puzzle Purse, which I really loved stitching. Now you need to cut the cardboard to make the box. I used cardboard about 1/8 inch thick. Cut 2 side pieces 2 ends pieces and one base. So I had:. 2 pieces 8.5 x 3.5 inches. Take ca...

https://pinsneedles.wordpress.com/2011/06/25/hot-stuff-in-cool-mode
A look at my creations with pins and needles. June 25, 2011. Hot Stuff, in cool mode. I’ve seen quite a few versions of Hot Stuff, by DebBee’s Designs. And loved them all. The original was done in yellow, red and orange – hence the name; though DebBee has also charted it in more green/grey tones. I decided to use my usual cool colours …. As usual, you can click on the picture to go to Flickr and then right click to see it up close. Laquo; Oooh there are some wonderful people about! Enter your comment here.

This book has to be re-covered! | Pins and Needles
https://pinsneedles.wordpress.com/2011/08/20/this-book-has-to-be-re-covered
A look at my creations with pins and needles. August 20, 2011. This book has to be re-covered! I have a little book with daily readings – it is well-read, and BADLY in need of a decent cover to stop it completely falling apart. So of course I am going to make a needlepoint cover.🙂. I will do it the style that Jean Hilton made popular with her piece called Puzzle, and then her Puzzle Purse. I found I really enjoy this sort of stitching when I did the Puzzle Purse. So, here’s the first step:. Moving right...
