Since I'm not working on anything new at the moment, here is a piece of Hardanger that was done quite a few years ago. It was a challenge but well worth the effort. Not sure I would do another one like this.
Gold Work on silk.
Theodora (2007) stitched with single strands of silk. Some beading added. Original drawing.
Applique with hand embroidery and free-motion work. Original design
Enjoy!
