Goldwork Flower
Parts C, D and E of the goldwork project completed the flower that's in close up here. I think it looks pretty good, but I did a couple of things wrong - instead of ending the couching every round on the lower leaf, I just kept going round with it. That led to some bumpiness. When I did it properly on the upper leaf, I left some gaps in the leaf on the wider parts. I really need practice! Hopefully I'll get some and some in person instruction, which I feel necessary, at the ANG seminar in Baltimore in August. Now on to part F!

Love the goldwork, I've not done a lot, only a small hand mirror and pill box for my Mum
This looks amazing and I'm facsinated by it every time I see it!
Thank you both! So is my husband, which means I'll be doing more of it.
