Little stitches, little steps. Some seeding stitches and French knots on this beautiful eco-printed silk from Jane Hunter
Trying to find the fine line between trampling over the delicate pattern and using hand stitch to enhance it.
Treading softly, on tiptoe, through this Monday morning.

Beautiful Piece—It is hard sometimes to know how much hand stitch to put on. Lately I have been using thinner threads and that works well on silk.
Thanks Janet, yes I prefer finer threads too. This silk is very fine habotai so needs a light touch
Treading softly but successfully – just enough, not too much!
Thank you, I’m glad 🙂
It’s beautiful, you’ve got the balance just right.
Thank you 😊
stunning!
Thank you, it’s really beautiful fabric
this is all so very fine … the cloth and the threads, the stitches and the colors … it all seems to be as it was meant to be
And I love it when it just so happens that way ❤️
You treaded perfectly. That tree is stunning.
Thank you 😊 much nicer in real life, as always
