Blackwork Butterfly - Flight of a Butterfly

"I love my “Flight of a Butterfly!” This piece is an exquisite blackwork design which incorporates some beginning goldwork techniques to beautifully accent the butterfly. This piece has solidified my love for blackwork. Tanja is an excellent teacher and her instructions are very thorough and easy to understand" Mary Doerder in Iowa, USA |

Blackwork Peacock
|
|
"This peacock, for me, was a challenge to stitch. However, once I began, I couldn’t stop until it was finished. I loved the metallic threads, but admit I changed the gold to more of a copper color, and used the HL version of the green. The fabric was 32-count bay rum jobelan (a warm cream). These colors matched our home better (plus I love to personalize). The star was added to cover a pencil smudge, very appropriate since I thought I deserved at least a silver star for completing the piece. If it had been my own design (oh, how I wish), I would have deserved a gold star, which is what Tanja deserves for her designs." Pat Niehoff in New York, USA

Blackwork Peacock

|
"His has been named 'Pee' and he hangs at the bottom of the stairs, in the hallway. He is either a flirt or a spy as he winks or stares when the light catches his eye. Every one who sees him is quite taken by his "eye movement". I am so pleased he cannot talk. He was a delight to work and I will enjoy him in his own quiet way." Sharon Gray in Manitoba, Canada
