I last told you about the online course I was taking called Geraniums through the Embroiderers' Guild of America, Inc. (EGA) here. Well, I got it all done and here it is!!
It was a very fun piece to work on and I hope to get it framed and hung in our house. I really love the colors. If you have not seen the earlier post, be sure to click on the link above to see how the wide border looked at the stages of completion.
Happy Stitching!!
I am in the middle of an Embroiderers Guild of America (EGA) online course called Geraniums by Merrilyn Hazelwood. It comes in three colorways. I chose mandarin.
It is on white 18 count mono canvas using some Gumnuts wool, DMC #5 pearl cotton variations and a solid. Yet to be used is some DMC floss. The design area is about 9”x9”.
I started late and I am still on lesson one of three and I think lesson three comes out March 3!
The wide border is done in rice stitch using the wool for the cross and a variegated for the crossing of the legs. This is how it looks partially done and there is quite a difference! I did follow the teachers suggestion and tried to get color blocks rather than doing the legs row by row.
The next photo is the completed rice stitch border. Now on to the rest of the border and lesson one will be complete!
Happy Stitching!
