I’m here. I’m really here and I’m working – both at “work” and at my crafty stuff. The big news is I’m taking a Brazillian embroidery class this weekend (it’s actually two weekends) and being the “rebel” that I am, I went and picked out my own threads. The project is supposed to be very sedate – creams, light pinks, green. Not my style.
So, here’s what I picked:
And here’s how you “prepare your threads” – Edmar has to be steamed. Honestly if the threads weren’t so GORGEOUS I would be annoyed by them. They’re tempermental – don’t like to twist certain ways and generally hard to work with. I think.
However, I must like them, because Saturday I will spend 1/2 the day with them and my newest project.
