This is my most recent embroidery project. I found a coloring page online, then traced it onto white fabric. I used mostly backstitch, just because it’s my favorite stitch, though I’m not sure why. I like the simplicity of it. Anyway, it’s my first semi-big piece, and I’m pretty proud of it. My grandmother, who’s been embroidering for so many years, took a look at it, flipped it over to inspect it, and deemed it “very good.” I’d like to try freehand embroidery next, but I’m such a perfectionist that not having a pattern or a plan freaks me out a little. I’m interested to see what I’d come up with, though.
