Just finished my first piece of blackwork- enjoyed the process so much! I just started in the middle and worked outwards with no particular plan, but added sections afterwards. I’ve used basic filling stitches so my next piece will have to include some more ambitious stitches.
I’ve used a variegated green for the corner leaves – and autumnal colours. This piece will now go into this month’s travelling book at our Embroiderers Guild. Hope they like it!!!

How lovely! I’ve never tried blackwork, it’s always scared me! This introduction shows beautifully just how many patterns there are to try.
